587438 2007-09-03 09:31:00 Are you turning off from the start menu or by pressing the power button? beeswax34 (63)
587439 2007-09-03 09:31:00 Its having trouble closing someting at a guess. You have removed possible malware? And cleaned out the clutter? Removed unnecessary items from startup? All that stuff? pctek (84)
587440 2007-09-03 11:12:00 The power button on the laptop itself and on the Start Menu (Is that what's called in Vista??) are usually set to default to Hibernate or standby rather than a full power off.
Might be having problems going into this mode.

587441 2007-09-03 12:21:00 Yup, you have to click on the small arrow and then select Shut Down although the poster mentions that he has to do this 3-4 times so what are the chances that the first 3 times he hits Hibernate and then suddenly presses Shut Down? beeswax34 (63)
