Hi, I have a new Vaio with Windows XP MCE 2004 installed. Everything works
great, except that my computer seems to "wake-up" or come out of standby or
hibernation at 4:00 am or so every morning (I can't say if it's EVERY
morning, sometimes I sleep through it), for about 5 minutes, and then return
to standby. Is this due to Media Center?? Thanks for your help!

It will come as no surprise that you have something running on the system
that wants to do something at 4:00 AM. If you are semi-conscious the next
time this happens, take a look at the screen and see if there is any
activity. Check the applications loading at startup and see if anything
there may be the culprit.
