Hi Gilloz,

Have you tried disabling Hybrid Sleep? You may also want to look at your devices which is configured to wake up your computer during sleep. Here is a linke that would give you an idea how - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/fix-sleep-mode-randomly-waking-up-issue-in-windows-vist...

The thing is if your PC is at sleep and you disabled the UPS from waking this up, your PC might crash due to unsuccessful shutdown.
