    Solved PC stays powered on after wondows shut down!?

    Hi, have just looked into this and have disconnected the power switch completely and still boots up straight away. Shorting out the pins does power up the windows side of it. But PC still comes on straight away with the pwr switch connector on pins 6 and 8 removed completely from the MB. :(

    Solved PC stays powered on after wondows shut down!?

    Because the company I dealt with the after care support was a nightmare trying to get hold of them and getting any form of response. I do not want to wait another month or more before I have a pc again. If its worth trying I would rather try it myself first. Do you think it's worth trying the...

    Makes sense about the power supply killing the first GPU. Will look into upgrading before gaming on this again.

    Also if I have everything unplugged and off. Then plug the main power cable in and hit the rocker switch on PSU everything inside case power's on before I even touch the main PC 'power on' button. Does this imply the PSU?

    The power button is set to 'shut down'. Still the same. Also if I unplug it at the wall then plug it back in the fans and lights power up straight away. Only thing thay switches them off is the rocker switch on the PSU or switching off at wall.

    Hi all, Having a strange issue that has just started happening. When I press Windows, shut down. It goes through the usual windows shut down procedure and my monitor goes down but all my peripherals, lights and fans stay powered on. Have to just unplug at the moment to get my PC to shut down.
