I have a desktop PC that's 3 years old and is still running Windows Vista x64.  I recently moved house and when I set the PC up I found that every time I hibernated Vista, the PC would automatically restart instead of shutting down.  I tried messing around in msconfig, and disabled Wake On LAN in my network adapters in device manager - but this didn't fix the problem.

It turned out my humble Logitech USB mouse was causing the problem, and to fix it I just had to go into it's properties in Device Manager untick "Allow this device to wake up the computer":

Interestingly, when I moved the PC I probably plugged the USB mouse into a different port.  This must have reset this setting in to its default state and I needed to re-untick the above checkbox.
