Default sleep key causes my computer to reboot

Help!!

Every time I press the sleep key on my Windows keyboard, It causes my
computer to reboot.
I have set it to hibernate using the power setings in the control panal,
with no luck.
It says it is going to sleep, then reboots.

There seems to be a problem causing your PC to restart.
Check to ensure that the Auto Restart "feature" is disabled.
This may then help you to pinpoint the trouble.

"Go to Start | Control Panel | System. Click on the Advanced tab,
then in the 'Startup and Recovery area,' click the Settings button.
UNCHECK the box that says 'Automatically restart.' "
