Milito Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I recently purchased last week a HX850W and installed it in my other computer. The specs: Abit P35 Pro motherboard 275 GTX video card Windows XP Pro. When I try to shut down the computer, it shuts down and then reboots. I have checked all of the connections and they are hooked up correctly. I had a 550 watt power supply before the HX850W and I didn't have this problem. Any ideas what is causing this?

Yellowbeard Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Try clearing the CMOS and resetting your BIOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 19, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 19, 2009 The PSU is not able to power itself on, it requires a signal from the motherboard. It would seem that for some reason the PSU is getting a PWR on signal that is causing it to turn back on. I would try disconnecting the power and reset buttons on the case from the motherboard and see if you still have problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milito Posted November 19, 2009 Author Share Posted November 19, 2009 I'll try it thanks. The only thing I don't understand is my other power supply was working fine. The only reason I upgrade was I bought I new video card that needed more power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
