Jay, I had something very similar on my Asus CUSL2-C.  You may not "want" 
to do this, but see if your problem is solved.  Disable the "Jumper Free 
Mode".  On my board this marked JEN & you want pins 1&2.  Make sure you 
then set your DIP switches for your CPU.  This solved the goofy behavior I 
was having on reboots.  Back to the future! ; )
