Computer not shutting down.

Hi all I'm having a problem regarding my PC not shutting off completely.
I'm running windows 8.1.
The screen and peripherals would shut off fine but the tower itself stays on, ie fans and lights still on.
I've tried changing power options but still no luck.
Just wondering if anyone has other ideas how to solve it.
Thanks

Yeah tried that a few times as well as loafing default settings in the bios.

Yeah I can but would rather leave that as the last option as I have just done my cable management the other day

Now that I think about it, I just installed 14.9 beta on top of 14.4.

Will try clean install.

Tried the above with no luck.
Won't even restart itself, had to to it manually.
Going to try a clean install of windows to see if that fixes.
More convenient than swapping psu

Well, OS reinstall seems to have done the trick but it seems very picky which drivers I have installed.
Although now I have encountered a new problem.
Any game I launch will either crash my PC entirely or do the same in the following video.

It seems that disabling crossfire in CCC solves this, but I dont want to play my games on 1 card.....I bought 2 for a reason
