I have quite an odd problem and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions.
When i shutdown my windows xp computer (nforce4 amd x2 4400) it automatically restarts.
If i choose to hibernate my computer it will automatically turn itself off after hibernating as it is supposed to.
Restarting the pc works as normal.
I have tried disbaling/enabling all power management options in windows and bios including achpi, and about every option in the bios.
In the end I decided to leave it as i normally hibernate my pc anyway.
Today I fitted my new 1.5TB hard drive and in doing so unplugged most of my devices from my computer.
As it would happen I plugged in my Logitech keyboard in last (USB keyboard connected via ps2 adapter due to lack of usb ports).
As soona s i plugged this in my computer started up!
So i experimented and my pc will automatically restart only if i have my keyboard plugged in.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? As i am completly stumped on this
