Hi. I have a 2000+ in the A7VN8 board with everything stock.
It was an upgrade using an existing box and PS.
I had to reinstall XP for it to boot correctly but now it's been working for around 4 months fine and dandy except for one issuse: when asking the puter to turn off (start->etc etc) it simply reboots. There is basically no way for it to turn itself off and I end up having to push the power button whenever I need to power down.
This has been going on for a while until booting up the other day I got one of 'em "corrupted windows files" crap and had to reinstall. I decided the problem must have been the old 300W PS so I went to get a new one.
At my local hardware store I got a nice fortran 350W with the 12cm fan. Nice! I just installed it but it hasn't fixed the problem!
The machine is completely up-to-date patch-wise so I doubt it's that. The copy of XP is the same one I have installed on the other 5 puters so it doesn't have any glitches.
please help me
