I just installed new mobo, CPU and RAM and after installing all my drivers when I try to put my comp into sleep mode, or restart it, or shut it down, it doesn't power down. When I put it to sleep mode or try to restart it, it crashes and reboots. When I try to shut it down the screens shut off, but it stays powered in for another 5 min then restarts. What could it be?

That link won't take us to your specs, the page on pcpp has a link that you can give us.

 

As for it not staying down, cut the power once it shuts off? lol

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

i get that from time to time, i was advised to install the lastest bios, i notice when i eject any external media it seems to work

Also I can't update my bios because USB ports will power my USB Drive but not read it. With any drive.
