Hi,

My system recently started doing something strange. If I shut down
from XP, the system will completely power off, but immediately powers
back on and then off again in rapid succession. It will do this
five times before finally booting back into XP (the only way to keep
it off is to cut power). The same problem happens from a cold
start. The system will power on and within a second power off again,
then back on -- five different times. It will then boot normally.
Any idea what it could be? The power supply is only six months old
(Antec) and other than this issue, everything works just fine. The
power isn't on long enough to read the post code display on
motherboard (AI7) while the issue is happening. I'm at a loss...
