Like it says. I try to put my desktop to sleep (specs in sig); the screen goes blank then 1 second later the desktop is up again and the computer is still active. I'm tired of powering off the computer everytime I'm gonna be away from it for a while...

OS is Vista x64

Problem started several weeks ago.
 
Open a command prompt and type "powercfg -lastwake" to see if there was some type of input that either kept it from sleeping or instantly woke it up.

You can further isolate the probelm by seeing what devices are configure to send the wake signal by typing "powercfg /devicequery wake_armed"

From there you can disable those modes easily from the Device Manager.
