Reset switch turns computer off for a few seconds
Woohoo first post!!!
Like the title reads, twice now hitting the reset button made the computer do what seems like a hard reset. The first time it happened was last Tuesday and today it happened again. I don't know if it's a serious problem though
The first time it reset the bios to default so I thought maybe it was the overclock on the cpu that did it. The overclock is stable but I set it back to stock and tried to recreate it but it didn't work. So I went back to the oc and it's been fine since till earlier today when I hit the reset button and it did it again. This time it didn't reset the bios.
It doesn't happen every time I hit the reset button. It's only happened twice now out of probably 6 resets.
This build is 9 months old and has been overclocked for about 7 months.
Specs:
Antec twelve-hundred
Asus P5Q-E(gotta double check the bios revision)
Q9450 at 3.6ghz
4gb Corsair dominator ddr2-1066(running at 901 atm)
Evga GTX 280(overclocked)
Corsair 750w psu
WD Velociraptors in raid 0
WD 1TB black
Creative x-fi titanium
Vista Ultimate sp1

One of the many reasons why I'll never buy Asus again.
Thank you so much for the quick response!!!
