 Now because of the difference between AT and ATX power supplies my PC

 goes into suspend. Now for the strange part, if I have left my external
 (serial)modem with it's own power supply, switched on and I turn it off
 AFTER shutdown the PC re-boots.
 The really strange one though, if it is switched on BEFORE I power up, the
 PC fails to detect my hard drives, switching it off causes a re-boot and
 all is well, I can then switch on the modem. It would appear that something
 is not set correctly in the BIOS, any ideas ?


Wake up on ring detect?

Yes - it's an option in the Power Management section of the Award Bios
(bioeses?? Biosee).

I suggest you turn off ALL of the 'wake up on event' options.

I had this problem with my mobo too!
