Default TH7-II RAID shutdown/standby problems?

"Marty" wrote in message ...
There is an unfixed BIOS issue on the TH7-II RAID (at least with the
last available BIOS) that shows up with XP SP2 resulting in the MB
failing to auto shut down on exiting the OS. It auto shuts down fine
with XP SP1. However, the machine can still be readily shut down via
the case front-panel switch. The first problem you describe may be
just a faulty FP switch or a faulty connection from the front-panel
switch to the motherboard. The rest of the described problems might
result from either the BIOS problem that I described, or a corrupted
OS installation ( or both).

Thank you, unfortunately this problem seems to be OS-independent, as it was
already apparent under Windows 2000. I just assumed it was a faulty case,
but having recently installed the board in a new case the problem remains.
I'm stumped.


If you boot into Safe Mode does the problem go away?

If so, one of your third-party drivers is causing it.
