Sorry if someone else posted this, I could not find it...
When I go to turn off my computer, it turns off just fine, but almost instantly it starts back up.
It's so annoying, and I am getting tired of having to just hit the power switch in the back.
I've Already checked my BIOS settings...
What else can it be?

Hello azdrummer87, Welcome to PCHF
You Problem is different, Some Bios have a wake on mouse or keyboard touching feature. which means if you have a stuck key or sensitive mouse your pc will turn back out. check you bios to make sure this isnt turn on. |

Hey there azdrummer87
Have you installed any new cards recently e.g Firewire / or any other PCI cards?

Hi azdrummer87!
Welcome to PC Help Forum! What Windows version are you running? Have you any idea how it started to happen, or was it really spontaneously? Bluefish |

No cards or anything. It just started doing it for no reason... It's very confusing.
