Hello!
I've got a problem with a PC that is not shutting down properly anymore, meaning when one presses the powerbutton or chooses to shut it down, it appears to do so, while the fans of the case, the CPU and the video card remain running, so one has to turn off the PSU.
When turning the PSU on again, the PC immediately comes into a mode, where the LEDs of the case turn on and the fans run very loudly until I press the power button, which leads the PC to boot usually again.
The System:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit (should be an OEM version)
Intel Core I7 870 (with 2,93 GHz showing in the system panel)
Nvidia GeForce GTX 460
6 GB RAM
According to CPU-Z I found the following about the Mainboard:
Manufacturer: Packard Bell
Model ipower G5800
and BIOS:
Brand: American Megatrends Inc.
Version: P01-A3
Date:05/17/2010
As I also had resp. have problems with the video card, so I updated its drivers. Furthermore I reset the BIOS via the jumper and tried different settings within the power management of the BIOS, which didn't lead to anything.
Also I've searched for an BIOS update on the manfacturer's website but only found outdated or not supported files.
I hope one of you may have an idea what could fix that and I thank you in advance!
Ps. As I'm new here I hope I didn't make any mistakes in creating this thread. If so, don't fear to point it out.
