The FernMan Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 has anyone had this issue before after shutdown, i restart the computer and the machine goes through 2 or 3 unsuccessful startup before the bios (post screen). it powers up, then powers off. after two or three time, sometimes even four or five, i hear the beep and then the post screen. the Operating System works fine and it happens sometimes when i change bios options. i save the bios config then it shutdown the whole computer, then restarts. doing the same thing, power off and on cycles. then i flashed the bios with f12 and i thought that fixed it but at least now it does less power cycles on and off. any ideas??

sheeplover Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Before I updated the bios to F12 I only had this behaviour when sending the hackintosh to sleep. It fell asleep and after 4-5 seconds it rebooted over and over again... Now, with v.F12 this problem is gone - but another apeared: having the hackintosh sleep lets it reboot when finally shutting down. Sometimes it takes 10 seconds for it to reboot, sometimes 2 minutes. It's weird and I can't find a fix - but, it is the only issue and the only thing that's not like a real mac so - I take it with a smile ;-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/111037-weird-reboot-issue-with-ga-p35-ds4-motherboard/#findComment-786795 Share on other sites More sharing options...

steenamaroo Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 has anyone got light to shed on this subect? my p35 ds4 does the same thing (f12 bios,rev 2.1) it also does a false start everytime i boot, if i've previously had the ac power off.. the fans will come on and it beeps (as normal) then within seconds it reboots without any problems.... thanks in advance.
