Hi Everyone,
Im hoping someone can shed some light on this issue for me. I had to replace my ASUS P8Z68 Deluxe board, due to a bad BIOS flash. Everything went great in the replacement, I installed all drivers etc, but now whenever I shut down or restart my PC via start button, it goes through the motions, suspends the LCDs, then just sits there with all lights, fans, DVD drives etc working still. I have to hold power button down for four seconds or press the reset button. When I turn it back on or reset it, it boots quickly back into windows without any issues or error messages.
As there is only a beta BIOS, I have not yet tried a flash. When I had the old board in I never had an issue with shutdown or restarts, and all the components have been tested OK as best as I can.
I have read a few posts about this, and tried the following to no luck:
- CMOS reset
- looked into S4? power states (no clue what to change or where to change it)
- updated all gpu/chipset/maiboard drivers
Mainboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77-HD3
CPU: Intel i7-2600k @ stock settings
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz 2x4Gb (reseated and in correct channels)
GPU: HD6870
PSU: XFX 850w black edition
SSD: OCZ Agility 3 with latest firmware
OS: Windows 8.1 PRO 64bit
EDIT: I have tried it with only the mouse plugged in to USB, nothing else, and have also tried removing all internal connectors that werent needed, and have checked all connections are in the right spot.
Does anyone have any idea what I can try to sort this out, its not a major issue I know but still annoying.
