Just a quick sanity check - are you testing this with a hard drive or

I've had hard drives with corrupt boot sectors cause this symptom in the

With absolutely nothing connected, saving the BIOS page results in not

Fair enough.

Sort of smells like a motherboard power issue, as others have alluded
to. Don't know how far you'd get trouble shooting that though.
