rsilves Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Hi. I have a computer with Leopard 10.5.1 Kalyway (didn't update to 10.5.2 yet). I have a P5W DH Deluxe motherboard and a Vitsuba Master case (which has an LCD screen for monitoring temperatures, and beeps every time I turn it on or off). Every time I want to turn it off (I do it mainly when I have to change a disk or something, so I'll turn it on and off to try different settings), it turns off (the case's monitoring system beeps) and after a second, it beeps three times (as it always does when I press the button to turn on), and turns on again! I have to keep the power button pressed for 5 seconds to force it to turn off (and apart from bothering me, I think this might damage a disk or something in the future). I think it has something to do with the motherboard, any idea? Thanks, Rodrigo ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsilves Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 Hi VaporATX. It was unticked. I tried ticking it and untucking, but it still happens. Rodrigo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaporATX Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Turn ACPI 2.0 support on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsilves Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Did that... Did not work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaporATX Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Did that... Did not work... Probably a bios version issue. For example: My P5K-E has the same issue with the 0906 bios, but works fine with the 1002 bios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
