Okay, what the fuck?

The power button on the front of my computer tower "blinks" when the computer is in sleep mode. Considering that I rarely, if ever, shut off my computer, this is very annoying, also considering that the tower is literally just a couple feet away from where I sleep, and the bright blinking light wakes me up.

Anyone have any idea how to get the light to not blink when the computer goes into sleep mode?

scotch tape with cardboard.

Alternately just disconnect the light from the motherboard.

Have I never mentioned how bad I am with hardware? I am not disconnecting anything from the motherboard. This computer is brand new, and I would end up either electrocuting myself (yes, somehow, I would, even if I unplugged everything) or I would somehow break something I didn't want broken.
