USB 3.0 PCIe card Shut Down Issue

Hi folks,

Quick Q - recently bought a USB 3.0 PCIe Card (unpowered) and since installing my computer won't stay shut down.

It shuts down but maybe a second later - reboots itself up!

I've uninstalled the device and reinstalled - updated driver. It happens when nothing is plugged into the ports - I've disabled PCIe wake up in BIOS - I'm lost!

Just wanted to swing by in case there is something obvious I'm not doing...?

Thanks guys - all wake ups are disabled and USB selective suspend is now disabled - but still happening. Yet to find ERP in BIOS but will keep looking! It's an odd un!

Thanks hyperseven - really appreciate that - I had no idea that was a thing!

I'm not really sure what I'm looking at - the abnormal shutdowns have no reason attached. The detail is this:

BootAppStatus 0xc00000d4
Checkpoint 16
CheckpointStatus 0
SystemSleepTransitionsToOn 1
CsEntryScenarioInstanceId 0

...but I've no idea there.

Interesetingly I selected a Deep S4 shutdown in BIOS, which apparently means it's only the power button that can wake the computer and it still happened...!

Still no success on this so far. Would rather not have to give up as budget won't allow so will keep trying

No success yet. It's definitely the card as have removed it and computer shuts down fine. Just can't think of anything else to try
