Strange rebooting problem? Need help..

[Parabellum]

Hello there,

I have a problem since day one (my last built) with my system as it sometimes powers up by itself after a complete shutdown. What happens next is that I am prompted to press F1 to enter BIOS and reconfigure everything or press F2 to load setup defaults. It is really annoying since when this happens, the BIOS spash screen indicates that overclocking attempt was unsuccessful... Well, everything is stock right now and keeps doing this so I leave my computer powered up 24/24 to avoid this. Anyone has a clue about this? System in sig.

Thanks

my shuttle use to do this kind of thing too. never restarted on its own but sometimes after a reboot/shutdown it said it was overclocked and to reconfig the settings but they showed otherwise. they never change. I accept the new config and it continues to boot. I tried many different bios', farted around with it for awhile and said fuk it. with everything running perfectly, ignored

try another bios battery, or another bios, remove mobo from case, all case botton wire leads and any hardware not needed. start ruling out what it could be...

I have read somewhere that it could be a ground problem. The way I see it, the best way to isolate the problem is to run barebone and mostly with the motherboard out of the case to make sure that there is no short or stuff like that. I think I will try this but it is a hassle and time consuming..
