The board should remain powered even when the PC is turned off as long as the UPS is on.  From our perspective, your configuration is correct.  You need to contact the manufacturer.  Tell them what you've done and how you've tested.  It might be the PSU they are using.

Thank you! Yes, that's what I fear.

Do you think updating the BIOS will help? My version is currently F1, and there's an update for it but it's a beta release; "F2a". It says in the download page that it could lack some of the features a full release would have. I'm scared of bricking it, we need this PC for work.

I've also contacted Gigabyte support but they suggested to call the local Gigabyte support and go see them with my motherboard, and I can't do that since my system is under warranty as I said.

Maybe I'll void the fckng warranty and change the PSU as you said.

Thanks again! I'll keep you informed about this.

*******EDIT*******

I've made a few more tests and discovered I'm able to wake the PC via "WakeOnLan" (WOL)!!! (Based on that, I don't think the PSU is the problem.)

So, I've got a workaround for the moment; Remember the old P4 PC this new one replaced? Since it can effectively "Resume by Alarm", I'll set it to power on at the desired time and schedule a magic packet to  send to the new PC and turn it on, and then schedule an auto-shutoff for the P4.

Not a solution for the problem but a nice temporary one for me.

Thanks guys!

Hi
I know this is a old topic but i had the same problem with h310 and i thought this solution could be usefull for others.
I found out that my pc doesn't fully shutdown when i click shutdown from start menu.
So i disabled "turn on fast startup" options in control panel and then shutdown and the pc started at the time i set in bios.
OR
You can just shutdown your pc using "shutdown /s" command in CMD.
OR
You can hold shift while click on shoutdown in start menu (i didn't test this solution but i think it should work too)
I am using win10.
And sorry for my bad english (if it is!)
