    Funny hibernation problem

    On my new build with a Gigabyte EP45-UD3P motherboard and the famous 550W AcBel, under Windows 7 64-bit, if I hibernate my machine it will turn itself back on in a few hours. I'll hibernate it at night when I go to bed only to find it on in the morning. I'll hibernate it before I go to work and it'll be on when I come back, same thing if I pop online to check my email before school...

    I'll do some snooping around with a multimeter later, but it almost seems as if it's not fully entering S5, which it should because hibernation=save RAM contents to disk and then regular (S5) shutdown. Anybody have any ideas/suggestions? It only happens when I hibernate it, not when I just click "shut down".

      Odd - it says an audio stream is currently in use for Realtek HD audio. Is it possible for the integrated sound to somehow be causing this?

        I'm not surprised you have a hibernation problem with a new operating system.
        This is not a decent answer, but you are braving a brand new OS, and this is what happens.

          does it list the process responsible for the stream?
          does the same thing happen in standby?

            Check in device manager for your Realtek HD Audio. In the Power Management tab see if there is an option for "Allow this device to wake the computer". Uncheck it if it's there.

              That and also look at your settings under advanced power settings for your power plan. Also disable windows media player network sharing, that was a big one on my machine that caused my audigy to act up. you should also see if there is something that is using sound besides windows, go to the mixer and it will tell you

                my audigy does this too, usually there is a process using sound that forgot to close. if nothing is running the stream should not be in use.
