Asrock Extreme 3 990 FX AM3+ board not powering off

[mhisani]

Hello, I purchased this board a couple of days ago and installed it. Fantastic. Everything went great, Really like the BIOS look and feel too. Everything works a treat apart from if I tell Windows 7 to shutdown. It goes through the motions and then eventually the screen goes black as if to turn off but the fans still run and it seems if you wait long enough it will eventually restart the system. Initially I thought I might have a ram issue or something. So I ran Prime95 for most of the day and also ran memtest all working fine. All apps etc work perfectly and the CPU temperatures are fantastic... I know it's not the end of the world but I'd like shutdown to shutdown :) Any ideas? Thanks for your time. You must get sick of the crying for help :)

Are there any usb flash drives that are connected to your system? If yes, which usb ports?
