My ITX can boot fine from a shutdown. However if I prompt a restart, the machine shuts down then does a power cycle continuously - The GPU lights up and the CPU fan starts for around 5-10 seconds then shuts down and repeats. If I force shutdown during this (hold power for 7 seconds), then start again after 3-5s, the pc boots fine. I was even able to setup the OS and install softwares fine, as well as remote desktop and use.
However some other things are funny - USB 2.0 CD ROM drive keeps power even after the machine is off. The Mobo only supports USB 2.0. There is also a green LED on the mobo that is always on. In addition to this, some windows updates cannot install correctly (Windows 8.1) - Is this caused by the restart issue?
Is there a fault in the mobo or the PSU? Is there a settings in the Asus Bios that is causing this?
PSU - KL-SFX450 450W 80 Plus Bronze Efficient SFX Power Supply
Mobo - ASUS P8H61-I LX/RM/SI ITX LGA1155 (Second hand)
GPU - 3gB Sapphire Radeon 270x
RAM - Corsair 1333 MHz 4gB sticks
I'm trying to decide whether the mobo or PSU needs to be returned as I'm still in the return period. Any bit of advice/help here would be great.
