Pc wont seem to 'warm' rest

[Jonnygrunge]

Guys
I have a P35 DS4 (F11 BIOS) which is overclocked, my Q6600 G0 @ 3.2GHz and my RAM at 1066MHz prime stable 24Hrs. Anyway for some reason it does not like to be 'warm' resetted/rebooted, ie restart PC from, say Windows. If I do this it will start to boot, then power off, power on and power back on with BIOS defaults, ie default clockspeeds set for CPU and RAM! It's kinda frustrating! At the moment the only way around it is just to totally power off then reboot! I can't seem to work out what's going on as it is rock solid, in Windows with no other problems in 10 months!, from the OS or gaming! Any ideas? The mobo manufacturer is Gigabyte, see sig for remainder of my rig!
Later,

updated bios to latest ? and any chipset drivers ?

im not sure if this is related. but is the cmos jumper in the proper position ? check your mobo manual. and if this is related i dont know though the reset switch connector from your case (which comes with the power led / switch connecter / hdd led etc) have you plugged those in correctly ? again check your mobo manual.

I think its the latest version of the BIOS (F12) causing this issue! Jumper is OK had the rig for 10 months! My chipset drivers are always up to date! I found in another forum someone had un-hooked the power and left the BIOS being powered by the CMOS cell for a few minutes. They reconnected the power and it seemed OK after that, bizarlly this seemed to work for me also!
