It's an ASUS P4S8X-MX with SIS chips. It works all fine, except for the fastboot command. Bootup from cold machine and shutdown all works perfectly ("shutdown -p now" switches off the power). However, when I do a 'fastboot', the console displays the machine's down procedure, and then says: Rebooting but nothing happens anymore after this. I have to power off/on the machine, in order to boot again. Any idea why this is happening? Are specific settings on the motherboard or in the BIOS relevant to such a reboot? Thanks, Rob. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
