My computer used to shut down just fine. Yesterday, after a major
Windows
update, my computer starts to have shut down problems. After I
shutdown
the
computer, it always turns itself back on now. This happens even when i
shut
down the comp physically.
Jerry said:Ok... let me clarify my situation a little more... It is more of a
powerdown
problem, i guess. The computer powers down ok, but then it automatically
turns itself on again. I deduced that the problem arises from one of
three
sources: my mobo, my Power supply, or my Windows.
I did a bit of troubleshooting: I updated my mobo bios to the latest one.
Problem was still there.
I also tried shutting down the computer manually before it booted into
windows. The problem was still there.
What do you think? Is it the PS? or could there be another reason?
