So now that I fixed the problem that was causing it to not start, it doesn't want to shut off now. When I go threw windows and hit shut down, it shuts down, stays off for a few seconds, then turns back on. What causes this, and how can I fix it? Windows 8 PRO and ASRock PRO4 motherboard.

did you reinstall? when did this problem start showing up?

 

Ever since I built the computer. I don't want to re install for that.

 Have you tried clearing the CMOS? Also are you able to shut down when in safe mode?
