Just got my new board in, and it started up just fine, booted into Windows, all cool.
Then I shut down, and when I restart, I get nothing. Power comes on, but screen stays black, no POST, windows doesn't boot, nada.
Forced power down, then hit the reset CMOS on the back, and the computer posts and boots to windows perfect.
So ... if I power it off at ANY POINT (before Windows boots, or after) ... it won't restart. It just sits there, fans running, but no picture ... forever. I have to manually power off, then reset CMOS, to restart the computer successfully no matter what. And doing so fixes it perfectly, every time. Computer will boot up, that's how I'm typing this. But it won't boot up next time, after I shut it off, unless I clear CMOS first.
This is tripping me out. I don't have a speaker so I've no idea if I'm getting beep codes, but ...
Any ideas? Both 8-pins are hooked up, but no Molexes. PCI-Ex slots 2 and 4 are disabled via the dip switches. Other than that, everything is pretty much 'stock'. No add-in daughter boards are connected like the Bluetooth or anything.
