    go in Power Management in your BIOS and disable KEyboard and Mouse... it works on Award BIOS. I dunno what BIOS you are running on.

    No, I have very sufficent cooling, and I am well aware of the insufficient stock cooling on most systems.

    Besides the PSU, overheating is probably the biggest cause of system instability.

    And since he has to switch to stand-by mode(his CPU would cool, and functionality would return) overheating doesn't sound impossible.
