Hi, I have a new issue with this board and Vista x64...

When I select shutdown, the board appears to be cutting power instantly which has ultimately corrupted my OS install...

This evening after doing some Prime testing at all stock settings just to ensure I have a stable/working board... I shutdown Vista x64 via the start menu. It immediately shut of the PC without going through the requisite (Logging Off... Shutting Down...) routine.

I then restarted the machine and it gave me a message after POST indicating that Windows was not shut down properly... what did I want to do? I said... Start Windows Normally.

Thinking this was odd, I tried shutting it down again. Same thing... immediate power off without going through the normal logoff/shutdown routine.

This time the OS would not start... I had to cycle power again and got it to start but now the OS is corrupt. A lot of systemprograms won't run (welcome center, control panel, etc.).

Any thoughts on why the board might be killing the power right away? Is this a BIOS issue?

I'm going to reinstall Vista tomorrow and try this again, but I'm a bit concerned.
