Hey everyone. I recently finished my first PC upgrade, replacing the motherboard with an off-the-shelf model from Fb Mktplace. Everything is functioning properly now. But sometimes the computer powers itself on by itself, and I couldn’t find any BIOS settings indicating auto-boot was enabled. The motherboard I used is an ASRock H97M Pro4. I’ve installed Windows 10 Home. Any suggestions on what to check or adjust?

Do you have a feline companion at home?
I needed to turn off wake-on-keyboard functionality to prevent it.
It's possible certain configurations enable wake-on-lan activity.

Shutting down the PC and turning off the modem...test.
