Hi all,

For some reason when i turn off my PC couple seconds later turns on by it self this is the first time a computer has done this to me.

gets really annoying because now to keep it off i have to turn it off from the power point.

Is my PC haunted?:o

I know that with my computer, I had to turn off some stupid feature in the BIOS that would let USB devices stay powered on after shutdown, and that solved the problem for me.

i get this problem sometimes but it hasent hapaned since i switched away form my E-BLUE cobra pro gaming mouse and keyboard so i dont know whats up with that

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Just pack your stuff and leave. Burn the house. Get a new ID. Make a leaving out of recycled cans and never, but NEVER touch a PC again. They will be looking for you. Be careful.

If so you might be in trouble. I do not think holy water is good for electronics. Maybe try burning some sage next to an intake fan.
