Hi all.
I have just built a new system with a Gigabyte GA- K8NNXP Socket 754
motherboard. It works fine however when I shut the system down with either
the power button or through windows shutdown the system turns off but then
in about 1 or 2 seconds turns back on. I have disable any wake up things in
the BIOS and all Power managment items.I have also tried a diffferent power
supply. This happens even with only Motherboard, processeor and memory
installed
Any help would be apprecieated
Thanks in advance

Check for updates to the motherboard's BIOS, through Gigabyte's website.
Before that, make sure ACPI is enabled in 'power management' in the Control
Panel.

have you tried holding down the powerbutton for about 5 seconds so it
completely shuts down?

This is probably related to the CDRW drive and the DMA settings this
is a common problem with the Roxio Software for Easy CD Writer. Some
versions are just incompatible with XP.
 
Hi
I think it is because of the dual power system on the Gigabyte board. I am
going to test it tomorrow and see for sure
