Subject: My Z170M-ITX/ac does everything well.. But reboot.

Hi there. This is my glitch:
My board does everything like a charm (boot, suspend, unsuspend, poweroff) but reboot. Many times (almost always but not all) at reboot, after O.S. succesfully terminates, board gets hang, screen black, fans fixed at the speed it where, and unresponsive keyboard (lit but no response to any key).
Solution is 4-second hard-reset. Then restarts without a problem. Workaround is always shutdown or suspend but never reboot.
It started doing this about a week ago, it worked fine before.
My system is stock, not overclocked i7-6700K with NVidia 1060 3GB and 2x8GB 2600 SDRAM. 2 SATA disks, 240GB SSD and 2TB mech. Not other hard but miniPCI-e stock wifi
It fails the same with Windows 10 and Linux 4.4.0-last. I've rEFInd UEFI boot manager on Windows EFI partition and is checked ok.
Please, I pray for support as is the only kirk of the system.
Thank you in advance.
Edit: BIOS 2.60. it was 1.10 when new
