Computer keeps turning on
My friend has a new ABIT SG-80 MB with the SIS 661FX+964 chipset and a
Phoenix-Award BIOS (sorry I don't have the version #) His problem is that the computer will not stay off. He shutdown the computer using the Shut Down command in the start menu. Yet when he moves the mouse, or touch a key, the computer starts. Getting into the BIOS Power Management Setup, we been able to keep the computer off except when the CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE keys are pressed. But, we want the computer to be OFF when it is OFF. With NO CHANCE of the computer starting by any method except the power button on the front of the case. All the choices under the Power Management windows has been set to their defult setting. Whith the ACPI Suspend Type set at S1(POS) But, we still can start using the CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE command. Is there a way to kept the computer off when it is off? |

I don't have one of these, but looking in the manual at http://www.abit-usa.com/products/mb/...es=1&model=269 it seems that in the power management screen of the BIOS, "Power On By PS2 Keyboard" defaults to (Hot Key). Have you tried setting it to "DISABLED"? |

There is NO disable (or enable) for the "power on by ps2 keyboad" setting. Just Hot Key (ctrl-alt-backspace) and Any Key. |
