This probably applies to all motherboards with ACPI, but I saw this on an 8k7a.

Be very careful with the power save features on motherboards, otherwise you could find your windows 2000 continually stuck on a reboot loop.

If anyone knows why this is, or what setting could cause this, I would be really glad to know.

Where I work we had about 10 Micron desktops do the same thing. After many hours of swapping, we determined that the Motherboard was bad. Micron sent us new ones and everything works fine.
