Hey guys!
So I have a weird issue with my HTPC machine. Specs:
Asrock A75M-HVS
AMD A6 3500
4GB Value-ram
Thats all thats really relevant so far.
So basically I've researched this issue and found that this is common with Asrock motherboards but it happens with other manufacturers as well. There was also a thread about it here, but I'm already running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and it still happens.
Basically when I do a shutdown with Windows (or a Hibernate for that matter), the machine doesn't seem to fully enter S5. The CPU and PSU fan are still on, and the power light is on as well.
Here is what I did to troubleshoot:
So far no fix yet. I've googled it, and I haven't found a resolution at all. Anyone know what else I could try? Thanks in advance for the help!

Here is what I did to troubleshoot:
- Upgraded to latest bios (I was 1 version behind)
- Unplugged case cables for USB etc
- Used another PSU, brand new fresh from the store
- turned all ACPI features off in the UEFI
