Problem with motherboard

miamoto · 07-04-2008, 12:02 PM

I have a problem wit MSI K8N Neo Socket 939 motherboard. When I plug in a power supply, a PC automatically starts without pressing a power button on the case, and it cannot be shut down by pressing and holding a power button pressed for a while. It gives no sounds even if RAM is removed, it doesn't starts a hard drive nor optical drive. Voltage from a power supply is within a recommended range +- 10%. Can anyone help?
