#Force stop pc windows#
My issue was that if my computer lost power or was shut down from Windows (hibernate or shut down), then the only way I could turn the computer back on was to press the power switch on my computer chassis. I read a tip on another forum that made all the difference. I may try removing the FireWire card and just get a header adapter cable as I have an unused header on the motherboard. My motherboard is Intel brand and it’s way old and no longer supported by intel so no bios updates on their website.

I can’t even reboot the PC without manually using the power button to shut it off and back on (remember those days?). I don’t know if the issue is the PCIe box or the FireWire card.

But I also added an external PCIe to 2x PCIe + 2x PCI box which is self powered and in that box I have the FireWire card, a matrox video capture interface card, and an old turtle beach sound card (for which I can’t find the driver/apparently doesn’t have a 64 bit driver so it’s useless I guess). I just added a generic chipset FireWire card to my pc. I started having this problem today, and in my searching I found someone saying this happened to them when they added a generic chipset VIA FireWire card. Downloaded and installed that and now, for more than a week and like a dozen test-shutdowns, everything works! Hallelujah. So I go to the Intel homepage and what do you know, the latest driver is in fact from 2021 and not 2019.
#Force stop pc drivers#
They have drivers for the second network adapter, which is a Realtek, but not the Intel one. I check the fucking Asus homepage and they pretend this thing doesn't even exist. I check Armoury Crate and it says the driver is up to date. So I check the installed driver and it's from 2019. And I also had one on my old, different Asus MB. While I don't have that, I do have an Intel network adapter on my Asus MB. Long story short: Someone here mentioned the Intel Management Engine. I didn't take any parts from my previous build. It was obviously not a hardware defect, because the hardware was not the same. I tried everything in this thread and more. So now I'm pissed, I didn't spend almost 3000€ for this shit to follow me like a curse. Happened twice a week, never did much troubleshooting around it.Then I got a new PC recently. Except I actually could shut down the PC fully with a single power button press when it was in that state) intermittently for maybe 1-2 years on my old PC. Case fans, cpu fan keeps running, power LED stays on. I had the same symptoms (Windows shuts down, monitor and peripherals power off.
Okay I know this is from 2016, but it's still the first and most relevant post to come up when you google for "mainboard not shutting off", so here's my experience: IT'S BACK! I WAS BAMBOOZLED! Disregard everything below :(
