Noob alert!
Got a Hp microserver that has been working for quite some time with no problem until this one cropped up a few weeks ago which I have been ignoring for a few weeks.
The server is just used to stream films downstairs
It's running Server 2011, Avast antivirus and LightsOut addon.
When I disconnect it from the switch it goes to sleep no problem. It is connected to a Netgear switch which inturn is connected to the Virgin Superhub.
Disconnect the switch from the Virgin Superhub and again it goes to sleep. Everything else works fine access to the web etc on the client pc's and the server.
Replaced the switch
Best I can make out that there's network activity thats keeping the server live but I don't understand why
Thanks in advance
Ossie
