New machine I had built and I am running Vista Ultimate 64 bit. My problem is that after a week of trying to learn Vista after using XP, I have the following problem. When I try to put the computer to sleep, it does go to sleep but immediately starts to load and run programs again. Doesn't happen all the time but most of the time.
Must be something I am not setting correctly.
Any ideas?

Do you have any wireless devices hooked up, such as a wireless keyboard or mouse? If you do you would have to go into those devices properties and hunt around for an "Allow to sleep" tick box or option.
If not, then here (http://www.vistaforums.com/Forum/Topic15582-9-1.aspx) are some other reasons why it may be doing it.

Thanks Paxx. The very first one on the list on the link you provided seemed to work. At least when I tried it one time. By the way, temps are running in the high thirtys and mid forties with FSX running. So far so good. I did have one CTD after flying at 16x for about 15 minutes however. I guess I can't do that huh? Oops just tried putting it to sleep and it woke up right after. I will try the others.
