Hi
So my question:
When I disconnect my pc from the wall even for a short time and start it up again it goes into power cycling for 2 times and then start normally

Like it power up then immediately shot down and power up again twice then on the third time it starts normally

I assume since it only happens after I disconnect the pc from the wall that it is doing it by design?
I was wondering why?
Or am I wrong and it shouldn't be doing that?

Motherboard : asus maximus xi hero 
Thanks

ASUS Maximus boards just seem to do that. Not sure why, or even if there is a reason. Sometimes it will stop doing that after a BIOS update, but if there are no other problems with the board I wouldn't bother given the touchy nature of BIOS updating.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Your CMOS battery is more than likely dead.

Pop it out and change it over and see if that fixes it.

Bare in mind when you do change it the system will cycle twice for the fresh battery.

Then it shouldn't do it again.
