After installing a new video card I now have the problem of when I shutdown the computer restarts. I've disabled all power management features and tweaked the video card but still have the problem. The new card is a Gigabyte Radeon GV-R925128VH. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

There may be a problem being caused by the Video Card. Go to your Setup and Recovery options and uncheck the option to Automatically restart the machine upon an error being written to the log. Then, check your Event Viewer to see exactly what was causing the problem so that you can fix it.

Well I reinstalled the drivers and that didn't help so I flashed the card bios. Even though it was the same bios version it did the trick. I guess the original bios had a problem. Thanks
