Oh, PS: I do really like this Ultrabook a lot. I don't know if this is related to my event. IMEI is the OS software component of this, to be used when the computer is booted. It is designed for use with remote session software, to be used with OEM (or enterprise) technical support. VPRO is a chip in the mobo that can communicate and it's rumored that it can be activated even when the computer is off, even without external RAM, and can be used to initiate a restore cycle to rebuild the OS to original state (using the restore partition). I Have read that some new computers have Intel's VPRO remote access technology. I went into Windows power options, and verified that the wake timers were disabled, for both battery and plugged in. The only other device plugged in was the charger.
Both the wireless and Bluetooth were off, and even so don't they turn off when Windows is exited anyway? The Wireless LED does not come on when I shut the Ultrabook down, and it does not show any "wake" options in the Device manager. Not only was the one in "Power management" still turned off, but I had also disabled the ones in the "advanced" tab as well.
It was still connected to my home LAN via GB Ethernet cable, so I immediately checked the "Wake on LAN" options in the device manager. Then, after playing with the Asus movie screen saver and watching it, I shut the OS down and closed the lid, waiting for the black screen (I had already rebooted since changing the config) before I closed it.Ībout 30-60min later, I was getting ready for bed and I heard the Windows start sound! So I checked, and sure enough, the Ultrabook had turned itself on. Then I updated Windows, 66 updates including the 2 "optionals," and they only took about an hour (or less). After discovering the Lclick on the Power4gear widget was broken on the update (and the hibernate options vanished), I uninstalled it and installed the original version.
I updated the drivers manually after LiveUpdate hung and would not progress, and showed it was downloading when in fact there was no network activity - for a long time. I had shut down Windows on my brand new UX31 (UX31E is the 256GB SSD version) Zenbook, after updating all the drivers (that I would allow installed), and uninstalling the extraneous stuff like SmartLogon, FaceLogon, USB Charger plus, IMEI, and LiveUpdate.
