I would have to unplug it first, then I could get my pc to shut down. I later found that if I attached a powered usb hub and plugged the key board into that, it would shut down ok but the power would stay on to my keyboard. Was a nice trade off though till I found a differant key board. It was the newer version of the Logitec G15. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

(Prio 1) Update your Motherboard drivers. (Most forgotten) Update DX9 (even for Win7/Vista) Update Videocard. (If updated, run it again after Motherboard drivers) Update your fridge (above, time consuming!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I maybe able to help. I'm MCSE qualified, and an IT Manager. The next time this happens, wait a while and then forceable shutdown (hold finger on power button for 10 secs). Make a note of the date and time. Boot up and wait for the pc to settle down (loading all the services in the background). Click on Start and type "Event Viewer" (without quotes) into the search facility. Choose event viewer from the list and it will open a window. This application will show you all the events that have happened on your computer, and is a tool I use everyday to troubleshooot problems at work. The most useful one will be the Windows Logs. Look at each catergory and specifically around the date and time when you had to forceabely power off your machine. This should give you an indication to what is causing the problem. Once you have this information, we stand a better chance of pin-pointing the problematic software or hardware. If you are struggling I can always take control of your machine and help. Just download Teamviewer from www.teamviewer.com (full version/windows). Cheers, Cavey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
