Turning a halogen lamp on or off can produce an EMF pulse that affects nearby electronics (when I turn my desklamp on my display turns itself off and on again). Your lamp and PC lack sufficient EMF shielding. I would move them further apart or improve the shielding in your PC or get a better case for your PC. | |

I have switched off "Device can wake computer" in the windows driver settings of the network card, let's see whether that helps. | |
