Hey, my laptop has a problem shutting down it appears. I have an Acer Aspire 5920G with Vista Home Premium. The computer functions completely fine, except upon shut down. When I go to shut the computer down (via the start menu), it goes through the normal shut down procedure (logging me off, shutting down, etc.), but never actually turns off. Only the screen turns off (or goes dark). The computer itself stays on (like all the buttons and lights remain on, and you can clearly hear that the PC/Hard Drive is still on).
This is weird because the computer actually does "shut down" (because, upon restart, it doesn't say that the computer was "shut down" improperly). The only way I can actually get the PC to "turn off"/completely shut down is by taking the battery out and/or removing the AC adapter. Anyway, I have no idea why this keeps happening, and it's really a strange problem (everything shutting down properly but the computer itself remaining on).
Please help if you have any idea or if you need me to provide more info. Thanks in advance.
