Hello,

I have a problem that when my computer (windows XP) goes to standby (to save the power) it automatically resumes after 1 - 2 seconds? Please suggest if you have any solutions

Regards

Generally it resume from stand by due to mouse or keyboard activity, from experience i know that some mouse are sensible from inteference you can see the pointer move or shake on the screen by itself, this could be a reason why it resume from stand by

Have you checked for background programs that may interfere with the stand-by?
Alt, ctrl. del to get the task manager and then go to Processes to have a look at the running programs
Try to change Wake on lan method in your ethernet card settings, from "magic packet & pattern match" to "magic packet".
In fact "packet match" turns on the computer just after receiving a ping!!
