restart problem
Hi. hope this is in the correct place.
Whenever I install software and it says in order to complete the install you must restart your computer, the system will not restart untill I press the shutdown button in order to turn it off and back on again.
A shutdown occurs and a screen comes up with the option to press F2 to goto set up. This screen then goes away and re-appears without the option visible. the proccess then just hangs until I press the off button then turn the pc on again when it re boots normally and all is ok.
The same thing happens when clicking on "restart" from the start button.
The system will boot up ok from cold and everything else on the pc is "normal" The problem occurs whether Hibernate is on or off (I normally switch this off) and whether sleep is activated or not.
windows 7 64bit service pack 1 installed fully updated.
Any ideas appreciated
