Hi all,

I'm using this mobo with an i5 4590, 8GB and a GTX 750Ti 2GB.

I set the option to wake it on USB. This I move my mouse or press a key and the PC powers on. It works when it has been powered off correctly from the OS (I use Arch Linux and Win 8.1, both 64-bit). The problem is that a lot of times (50% aprox), when I shutdown the PC, the OS stops (Win/Linux), but the PC doesn't power off. I have to press the power button for 4s. This way, I can't wake it from USB, since it needs to be powered off from OS (G2/S5?).

I wonder if there is some BIOS update that fix this or if somebody else has this problem too. How can I solve it?

Best regards.
