Im definitely thinking its a mis-set option too. Problem is... Im usually not able to get into BIOS settings to verify and if I do, it shuts down shortly after. Is it possible to "corrupt" a BIOS (apart from bribery of course... )?

I'll try safe mode as well. In re: to the PSU: this is basically a brand new PC (as of 10/06). Everything was purchased new during that time frame besides the video card which was bought on ebay used. This thing has rarely been used since its been built.
