Just yesterday when I select restart windows 7 it goes through the normal restart process, the pc shuts completely down for about 5 sec, then lights up and turns back on and reboots normally to the desktop.Also,when I select shutdown it says windows is shutting down, the monitor goes to standby, the keyboard lights go dark, but the pc power buttons are still lit up and the fans are still going, and it does not shut down.Even in safe mode, when I selected shutdown it hung and locked up and I had to press the power button to shut off. Anyone have any ideas.

I finally got it all the booting problems fixed. I reset the cmos with the jumper on the asus sabertooth mb,booted the computer to bios, put in my oc settings, saved and rebooted. All is good now,no more shutdown or restart problems.

Hi Sir,I am Bharath from India.I think I can help you out here.Have you installed any App or Software The Time when it was working fine ? I highly suspect that some Software stops responding the time when you Shut down your PC making it to freeze up.

1) Install Advanced System Care 7.4 Free
2) Make it PRO (Illegal,If without paying a Price)
3) Select All Options
4) Scan and it will detect problems
5) Fix it by clicking 'Fix'
6) Try it now

OR

Go and Uninstall any Unwanted Softwares or softwares not that lie unused

Hope this Fixes your problem.Please Inform me the Results.If it fixes the Problem,Please don't forget to select mine as the Best Answer.Thank you

All this started after trying a memory overclock in the bios. I put the mem oc settings back to default but it still does the same thing.Maybe a bios reflash might fix things.
