    Windows 7 Windows 7 Pro 64 bit shutdown button wont turn PC off completely

    Donchino ....Im thinking your problem has more to do with you having a laptop and maybe a switch malfunction or a battery problem. My problem was in a completely different direction. I guess it wont hurt to try any and everything to fix it. It just sounds like your problem isnt Win 7 related...

I had a working 32 bit and I was just tired of running on 3.25GB of RAM so I bought 4 more giggs and went with the 64 bit. (Now Im...

    Windows 7 MSI motherboard won't completely shutdown

    You can try that but Im betting it doesnt work. I have your exact same m/b with the exact same problem. I had mine fixed and then I got a update or I reinstalled a coprocessor driver. It may have been all my Nvidia drivers...whatever I did I reversed my fix and now I must manually shut down my...
