So my computer runs perfect fine doesn't blue screen or anything bad at all when its on. However i have noticed that over times of turning it off and on the computer is taking longer like the fans will take more time to spin up when powered on and it is taking longer to shutdown. Then after this happens for a while when i shut my computer off it wont turn back on. It will start too and then just shut off immediately. Another time it turned on but none of the fans came on. Every time i turn of the power supple and unplug everything and turn it back on it works fine. I have tested the power supply winch is a corsair ax760i and has a self test button and everything comes back green. So i don't really know why this is happening its weird. However i am missing one standoff screw in the bottom left corner of my motherboard because i just didn't have a screw. could this be the issue? Also whenever i turn my computer on in the bottem left i see A2 dont know exactly what that means.
 
one last thing i have usb leds plugged into my computer at all times and before i reset my cmos the leds would stay on even when the pc is off now they go off with the pc witch i kinda like but i dont know if this is a issue with anything. And intel smart connect technology something i used to have was romoved with a windows 10 update and wasnt compatable
 
Hello... Good point to cover... they are metric screws... typically 3 types/sizes/threads in computer parts... a HD/CD/DVD screw might work for you... got a spare screw cup? or go to a computer shop they have bins of them I'm sure.

But to let you know... you do not have to have the MB in a case, or screws there to run it... OK?

Power supplys have Power to them when plugged into the wall... USB +5V will be there... only the switch on the PS to "OFF" will stop this.
Typically you want to have all your computer parts to a Power strip, for one easy place to shut off. B )

Windows 10 is a whole different 'CAN of Worms" for you to understand the basics is... 1) you have ?hardware 2) you have a ?OS 3) you need ?OS drivers for your ?hardware... Pretty Simple.

Windows 10 is still a experiment and there will be future Windows "whatever" Are you happy with your experience so far?
