Hi,
I have a SC17 4K Gsync that I put into sleep mode (via start menu or by pressing the power button). However the laptop seems to wake itself up, so that I oftern find it running when I open it up. I noticed it turning on by itself a view times now (the EVGA logo outside lights up when it turns on), without any interaction.
Is this maybe caused by scheduled windows 10 updates? Does anyone else experice this and know how to fix this?
 
Thanks a lot

    For a test I suggest going into the BIOS and disabling network wake, touchpad wake, and USB wake. If that fixes the issue then you can selectively enable to find the culprit.

    Sorry, but I can't manage to find any of this settings in the bios. I'm on the latest bios version.
