I have had this problem for a few years now and have no idea what caused it. I've tried finding solutions before but nothing I have tried has worked.
If I shutdown the PC through the Windows 7 start menu shutdown my PC will turn off like normal but will turn itself back on after about an hour (not ever exactly an hour, usually like an hour and a few minutes.) When it does this it will start on this screen: View: https://imgur.com/1HCL0BG
and will not proceed until I hit F1 and go through the bios: View: https://imgur.com/Q6NO21g
at which I usually set the time back to the current time which is about an hour behind. I usually just turn the switch off on the PSU to prevent this, but when the switch is turned back on the computer boots without me having to hit the power button the case. Also the PC will sometimes not power on with the power button until that hour has passed, and when that hour passes the pc turns itself back onto the same "AmericanMegatrends" screen.
From memory these are the solutions I have tried: new cmos battery on the motherboard (thinking it was not saving a bios setting or something as I have set the 'System Performance' to Asus Optimal and it reverts after this happens), recently put in a new PSU, I have tried messing with some of the auto-power on for update settings in Windows and have them all turned off. I could only imagine its something to do with the mobo itself but I would like some input from others on what could be going on.
Thanks for taking the time read this and any comments made on the matter.
