K7n2 - have to manually turn off

Just installed the k7n2 board and just can not figure out how to have the system power off without having to use the switch.  This happens when I try to restart from the BIOS or windows, or shutdown.  any help is appreciated!

thank you for your suggestions!  while I do not understand all of the suggestions from sagia, I was able to switch the powerdown registry setting from 0 to 1
I do not have any usb devices hooked up, and ACPI was enabled on windows install, which is the default...
the thing that makes me think it is not a windows-thing is that i have to manually use the reset switch to restart even when exiting the BIOS - it should automatically reboot, right?  could I have a wire in the wrong spot?
thanks for your help, tim

  • HT201415 Disconnects from Wifi or have to manually turn off and turn back on to connect

    I have an iPhone 4 that sometimes will loose wifi connection. Cellular data is turned off and all data is restricted to wifi only. Will work for a while and then load slowly or not at all. Have to manually turn off wifi and then turn back on to get it to work again. After a while this process keeps happening. All other devices in the home including PS3, Wii, and my other iPhone 3GS do not have any issues. Only the IPhone 4 has this disconnecting issues or totally does not detect the wifi at all sometimes. Please help!

    Is this on all WiFi networks, or only your home network? If it's the home network try rebooting your router by turning it off for a few seconds. In either case go to Settings/General/Reset - Reset network settings. You will not lose any data, but will have to re-enter your WiFi encryption passcodes.

    Use the Settings app.

    Is Auto Lock set to Never? Change it to less time.

  • Why did all my apps update when I have automatic updates turned off?

    Settings/iTunes & App Stores/Automatic Downloads
    Music
    Apps
    Documents
    I have them all turned OFF so that I can manually update my apps when I choose to.
    Yesterday there were 11 updates left after I had finished updating the apps I use most often.
    Today, it says ALL my apps are up to date?!
    So, did Apple force a bulk update on me despite my having turned everything OFF? Or did all my updates just suddenly disappear overnight???
    I will be VERY angry if I find out that my apps can be forcibly updated without my say so!
    If so, how can I prevent this from happening again? If not, same question?

    It seems to be a common problem.

  • S7000 2.1 speaker don't wake up after sleep. Needs manual turn off and back on - Frustrating!

    The speakers seem to go to sleep after about 10 minutes of no use (because you're authoring a document for 15 minutes with no audio/video playing). Now, you want to play some audio/video, the speakers don't automatically wake up! You have to manually turn them off and turn them back on. No speaker system in my history ever needs this manual on/off! Very frustrating!!! Please give me a workaround or fix. Ready to return speakers if I don't have a solution. Just bought and installed them 2 days back and already quite frustrated.

    I am having the same exact problem. Here is an excerpt from my system log when the freeze occurs.
    At 1-31 11:00:07 I open the lid. About a minute later I have to do a hard restart because the desktop will not come up. The Caps Lock and Num Lock keys both respond to input, so I have no idea what is going on here.

  • Is it possible to send a text to several contacts at the same time and not have their replies go to everyone on the list?  I have an iphone 4s and most of the people I am texting also have iPhones.  I do have group messaging turned off.

    Is it possible to send a text from the iphone 4s to several contacts and not have their replies go to everyone else on the original text?  I have group messaging turned off but this seems to do nothing. 

    Do this instead:
    Email everyone instead of texting and use BCC: which will hide all of the people's emails.

  • Since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

    since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

    I've also had the same issues, after upgrading to IOS 6.0, the apps in my iPhone 4 were crashing and the battery life run out very fast.
    The only solution worked for me was to remove all mail accounts (Exchange/Gmail) from my iPhone (in settings) and then add them back.
    The crashing were stopped! also the battery was back to normal.
    I found the solution by first looking at the crash logs (in IOS 6). you can find them at Settings -> General -> About (at the bottom of the About menu you will find the option that opens the logs).
    There i saw many logs about Low Memory crash. 99% of the logs were pointed that the largest process (use the most memory) during the crashes is "dataaccessd".
    I search in the web and found that this process is a deamon process that reponsible the Mail accounts (like Exchange/Gmail) and contancts list.
    I've installed the app "System Status - activity monitor" which shows important system info like CPU usage, Memory usage and running processes.
    Before apply my solution (deleting the mail accounts) i saw that the CPU usage was very high which consume the battery very fast. Also i saw that the memory (RAM) was run out.. which probably what cause the crashing..
    After deleting the mail accounts (at Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars) i check again with the System Status app, and saw that the memory and CPU were back to normal.
    Adding the mail accounts back, still everything work ok
    Hope this solution will help you too,
    Enjoy!

  • HT2731 I have 2 iPhone 4's in my name.  How do I stop from sharing my photos from one phone to the other.  When I take a photo it shows up on my husbands phone and vise versa. We have our iCloud turned off

  • HT4859 If I have the app turned off for storage in iCloud does this mean the app can not be downloaded to a new device?

    Manage Storage.
    1.  What am I deleting specifically when this message appears "Are you sure you want to turn off CNN backups and delete the backup data from the cloud?
    2.  If I have the app turned off for storage in iCloud does this mean the app can not be downloaded to a new device?
    3.  If I have the app turned off for storage in iCloud and I delete the app off my phone can I download the app again or do I have to repurchase the app?

    Every app that you buy or get for free in appstore/itunes belongs to you and can be downloaded on up to 10 devices or saved on up to 5 computers. Instructions to download apps to new devices here

    Here comes a "BUT" - imagine your kid playing game and getting to level 51 and have to start over from level one. Or imagine that history that you have in your CNN app. That is what icloud backup contains. My 500 scifi books are in one of the app backups and I REALLY do not want to lose it. That is what you would turn off.

  • Does iPhone record when sound is manually turned off via the external side switch?

    Does iPhone record when sound is manually turned off via the external side switch? Enquiring minds want to know.

    Are you asking if the phone logs when someone mutes it? No, I don't believe so. Or, are you asking if audio recording apps still record when the phone is muted? Why don't you use the included VoiceMemo app and test it?
    Best of luck.

    You need to re install OSX. If you have the dmg file downloaded via torrentz this is how you can create a bootable external HD or Flash drive (8 GB+)

    Step #2 after doing the the back up go and do on you phone or throu itunes do the factory reset setting and erase everything and make like new phone
    Step #3 Leave yhe iphone conected to Itunes.
    Step #4 Once your iphone is reset to factory setting on your Itunes Window will say NO SIM CARD DETECTED before clicking on your right up corner (DONE) slide your phone and it will appear conect to a network do the process and put the pasword of your WiFi and until it says conected,It will say (No Service) but it will be conected to WiFi  then click on the Itunes Window (DONE)
    Step #5 DO a back up recovery from the last back up you did onto your computer not Icloud ok!!
    Step #6 after you recovered your phone from last back up on your computer it will atumaticaly have service and WiFi conection like before..
    I hope i did explained well to you i did work for me after 7 hours of doing reset and back up =)
