    Hey guys,

    I've got a weired problem with my Z13:
    When I put Windows 7 (Prof) to hibernate mode (suspend to disk) it starts automatically when a power supply is connected.
    It seems to do it every day at around noon but sometimes also in the middle of the night. And it does not seem to shutdown automatically again.

    I have absolutely no clue what is the reason for this - really annoying - behaviour.
    It is not in standby, there's no bios timer and there's also no wake-on-lan (no networkcable connected).

    Had a similar behaviour with a HP laptop some time ago. But already there nobody was able help me :/ Hope I have more luck with you guys!

    I'm grateful for any advice!

    cheers,

    silent

    Can you try setting the wifi switch to OFF when you hibernate? Just confirming that it is not the wifi flavour of wake on LAN.

    Yeah it also starts when wifi is off.
    Btw, does the Z13 supports wake on wifi?!

    Try control panel > advanced power settings > sleep > disable wake timers

    Thank you. I'll give this a try.
    Sounds at least as if it could have something to do with it
