Thanks Since R&R did not work for me I´ve done an Acronis image of the C: drive + the hidden partion. Tested, it works. Since I don´t need the recovery partion I´ve tried to get rid of it to no avail. I´ve uninstalled R&R and disabled the hidden partion in BIOS. I can´t get the hidden partion to sho...

Have you tried to disable CPU power management in the BIOS?

Maybe it is similar to GUI activity noise as described in this thread

We are talking about shutting the screen off to save batteries and have the computer doing some work for me that I don´t have to monitor.

Still not working...I´m not using a mouse by the way. Right now it is happening with random intervals while playing some mp3s in mediaplayer.

Is there a way to only let it wake on keyboard?

Does the mouse really drift that often? This happens every time I shut the monitor in about 10 minutes...maybe something else what do you think?

Actually defragmentation is advised against when it comes to pro audio. You will actually get less performance if you defrag. Your audio app knows best where your audio project files should be so you don´t want to mess with them. Once again...what is true for non-audio users is not true for audio us...
