I'm building a home fileserver with a X11SCH-LN4F board in an ancient Chenbro SR112 case. Everything works until I plug in the power button into the motherboard. I'm currently using the reset button as the power button
The system will power on and randomly restart, usually after a few seconds in the middle of post. This cycle repeats until I turn off the PSU or disconnect the power button.
The wires, header plug, switch, and joints visually look like they're still in good condition. Using a multimeter, I've confirmed that the button is behaving as expected (closed when pressed, open when up) and that the wires aren't shorted against the case.
The watchdog timer feature is disabled in the BIOS.
Is there some other cause that I've missed? This weirdness is making me think that I'm either going crazy or my hardware is haunted.
