Asked By CuriousCactus29 On

I'm having an annoying issue with my Windows 11 PC where the screen keeps waking up unexpectedly, and I'm not sure what's causing it. I checked the wake history and found that the Intel USB 3.20 eXtensible Host Controller seems to be the culprit, but the option to prevent it from waking the computer is greyed out. I've searched online for solutions but haven't found anything helpful. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I had a similar issue before! I found that devices like USB hubs or controllers can sometimes trigger wake events. You might want to see if any other devices are connected that could be affecting it. Also, check under Device Manager to see if you can change the 'Allow this device to wake the computer' setting.

Have you checked if your mouse is on a reflective surface? Sometimes that can cause random wake-ups, especially with wireless mice. If that's not the case, maybe try updating your USB drivers or checking your BIOS settings. Just be cautious with BIOS changes; back up your data first!
