I can't seem to trace this down. At night I simply close the lid of the laptop so that it goes to sleep. The system logs show that the computer wakes itself up out of standby precisely 3 hours after it went to sleep. Often it remains awake, completely draining the battery, while sometimes it does fall back to sleep after a couple minutes due to inactivity. However, it will continue to wake itself up every 3 hours.
When I check the system logs in the Event Viewer I see that the wake source is unknown. Another commonality every wake cycle is the log entry for the Intel Management Engine Interface, where it reports that the "Intel(R) Management Engine Interface driver has started successfully." Not sure if this driver is to blame, but that's the only thing I have.
I have also disabled the network interface's ability to wake the PC from standby.
