I killed several things that could have been waking my computer (creating heat in the cabinet and burning power) but it would still wake overnight. With your help I found a sleep timer enabled that I would never have found on my own. The powercfg was a great bit of information. John Thanks for the help.

I installed on an msi wind. Everything was great accept for the sleep issue. It would sleep for a while if i closed it but the screen would not shut off on its own and sleep would never come. It turns out a simple bios upgrade was the trick now all runs flawlessly. So in short. Just upgrade your bios.
