    [Resolved] Computer not shutting down

    When I go to shut down Windows, it'll go to a black screen with a flashing white dash (caret or something). It USED to shut itself off when I shut down Windows.

    Any ideas why it stopped and what I can do to fix it?

    Disable Advanced Power Management. 90% of the times it does the trick!

    I had other problems with my computer, so I ended up just formatting. Now all is well, again.
