    Hey all,

    Lately I've been getting this strange problem with my Thinkpad T61p. I would put the machine on hibernate (and it does so just fine), but it immediately comes out of hibernate on its own. This is right after the machine goes into hibernate. I have no idea what's going on with it, but it's been happening for about two weeks now. If this helps, I have the original Lenovo-installed Windows XP (with SP3 installed on my own). Any ideas as to what's wrong? Thanks

    Most likely there is some kind of peripheral attached to the machine, maybe on a USB port, and on the BIOS the laptop is set to wake up when a device is hooked up.
