Hi
I have a PC connected to a network printer via crossover cable. With both devices turned off when I turn on the printer the PC boots. Does anyone know how to stop this?
Cheers
Al
 
Make sure the BIOS option for wake on lan is not turned on. That might help.
 
That was it, thanks - it was called PME Event in the bios power management.
