Where is the Sensor info on Hw program?

That's not the temperature/voltage area. You need to show the sensors window.

It will look similar to this:

Sorry - can't seem to find that window.

You should get a small window on start up. You can check the run sensor only or you can click on the configure button to set the start options

The voltages in your display look ok but it's only a snap shot of the current values.

Ok - thanks.

Go into the BIOS and see if Restart on Power Loss is set

Couldn't find such a setting.

Not on UPS.

Called thermaltake and they said it probably is caused by the hot swap bay (built-in to Case), some sort of of conflict. They also said the PSU might be failing.

If I disable hot swap controller in BIOS, the problem disappears, but I NEED the hot swap and would just as soon put the computer to Sleep.

When I ran Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed- it said USB controller.

You might check the motherboard site and see if there's a BIOS update.

Also, is there a BIOS manual. I've never had a PC that didn't have the Restart on Power Loss option.

Carwiz mate PSC should be able to scroll down to the PSU volts in that screen and watch them and snip them for that matter.

I did a BIOS update last week.

So, in your opinion, is the PSU OK?

The 5v rail seems a tad low but otherwise no bad.
