You have the MacBookPro6,2—the Edsel of Macs. It may have the logic-board defect that was covered by a recall program that has now ended.

The model was discontinued in February 2011. It's now classified by Apple as a "vintage product." That means Apple will most likely refuse to fix it (but see the exceptions on the linked page.) In that case, you would have to go to an independent service provider. The part may no longer be available, or the repair may not be cost-effective.

Often the problems start after an OS upgrade. If the upgrade was recent, and you have backups, then you can revert to a previous OS X version.

Otherwise, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider, to have the machine tested. The testing will be free at an Apple Store—unless Apple refuses even to look at the unit, which it might. The routine hardware diagnostics used by service providers do not detect the fault. There is a specific test for this issue called "VST" (for "Video System Test.") Ask for it. A "Failed" result means that the fault is present.

If you do decide to go to an independent service provider, be aware that the replacement part may also be defective. Some owners reported that they went through as many as three replacement boards before getting one that worked. Don't expect any help from Apple if you're charged several hundred dollars for another bad logic board and the provider won't replace it again.

If you don't want to take that risk, or if you don't like the price you're quoted, you may (or may not) be able to work around the problem by disabling automatic graphics switching. To use the discrete graphics processor, you'll need a third-party utility to switch to it manually.

I have an even earlier MacBook Pro4,1

I recently upgraded to OSX Mountain Lion and since then, have been getting the same "waking" problem. Very annoying.

My MBP has a single GPU, not dual, so there is no automatic graphics switching. But when I looked at the Energy Saver in System Preferences (hint from Linc Davis) it does have the option to turn off "Wake for network access." When I did that, I got the helpful explanation: "When 'Wake for network access' is enabled, you may hear your computer wake up occasionally." It didn't do that before, so the OSX upgrade must have turned on that option.

I turned it off -- problem solved.

Or, maybe it was the iTunes upgrade that turned on that option, not the OSX upgrade(?)
