All drivers and utilities and BIOS are up to date. When I press reset or try to reboot from windows, the system logs off of Windows, but then stays in a suspended state wit the CPU fan running, but never rebooting. At first was attempting to install Windows on to an SSD. After I realized that it was acting up during re-boot/re-start, I installed Wins 7 x64 on a normal WD HDD. Everytime I would have to restart, I had to do a hard boot in order to then turn on the system again to complete instillation. This is still the case. I tried removing the stick of RAM and moving to the other slot, I have tried moving the drives to different SATA ports on the mobo, I have tried to remove everything except for power/sata cables. I have tried re-seating the cooler...everyting except for re-seating the CPU, that is my next step...Ill post an update as I go along...has anyone else had this problem?
