Hi everyone,

Built my new PC over the weekend (specs below) and it has an odd problem..

Shut down in Windows 10 actually shuts everything down, power turns off and then within 2 seconds it turns it self back on again.

Held power button down, turns off, then turns right back on again in the same amount of time..

Turned off WOL, turned off Fast Boot still nothing.. Maybe it's possessed?

Have disconnected the Power SW, HDD LED etc from the motherboard, turned the PC off in windows and still the same thing.

Specs: Asrock 970 Extreme3 2.0, AMD 8350, GeForce GTX 8800 :( , 2 x Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB RAM, Corsair VS550, NZXT S340 Case

Any help is appreciated!

I had similar issues with my H170 Combo. Initially I did not perform a fresh installation of windows and it turned out to be the cause. I used a flash drive containing a live linux installation and discovered the system powered off as intended from within linux. After a fresh installation of windows the problem disappeared. In my situation however the system would remain off if powered off via the power button (3 second hold).
