Hi nfastenberg and welcome to Vista forums!

Can you open a command prompt (cmd.exe) and type in: powercfg -devicequery wake_armed

Then please post the result.

I had the same problem after installing SP1 but not sure this is the cause. The last time my computer woke from sleep by itself I went to Event Viewer and saw that the APC Services was the culprit, I disabled it and all is well again. I don't know if this relates to you but check your event viewer next time and you may find the culprit as I did.
