Troubleshooting a Windows 7 PC that wouldn’t sleep

I recently started facing problem with the Sleep feature of Windows 7. Whenever I press the sleep button, it goes into sleep mode but soon after a second, it automatically turns on and shows the Login window.

Could someone point me what's happening in there?

Run powercfg -devicequery wake_armed to see which devices can wake up the PC again. Now disable the ability to wake up.
