[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 72227, post: 825325"] I actually thought of an out there idea to test to see if it's windows vs hardware. What if your tried downloading a linux distro (ubuntu, kubuntu, etc...) and either tried installing it, or running it's live installer and see if you experience the same issues? If it shuts down and restarts fine, then it's tied to either Windows, or a driver/bios issue.The way I see it, if it's hardware related, then it will happen with all OSes IMO. Maybe I'm crazy hehe, but it may be a worth while test.:)(y) Who knows, maybe you'll like Linux more.:p [/QUOTE]
