Greetings all,
I'm having a problem with my computer not turning off completely. When I turn it off (through the Windows button), the fans, and a few other components (one multi-function panel, a temperature gauge, and the front LED lights) stay on. All the RGB lighting (including fan lighting) turns off, but the fans keep right on going.
I've tried disabling fast startup, updating the BIOS, rolling back the Intel Management Engine Interface, but all with no luck.
So, I'm wondering if this may be connected to a malfunctioning of the PSU. About four months ago or so, we had lightning strike near our house. It killed two Tripp-Lite UPSs, which they graciously replaced for free (as well as sent me other stuff, at no charge), and it took out the motherboard in my computer, our router, freezer, and tripped some breakers. The PSU (a Corsair RM650) tested fine after the incident, but I wonder if it may have sustained some damage that has only manifested itself in the last few months.
Would a faulty or failing power supply unit cause such an issue?
Thanks.
P.S. The first pic is one where the computer is on, the second it is off, but temp gauge and such is on, and the fans are running. The only way to turn it off is the switch in the back of the PSU.
