G580 WILL NOT SHUT DOWN

Return it. Get a UPS for the next computer.

That is a software issue with the OS. Was it always like this? If not, try a system restore to some time in the past when you know the unit was working fine.

hmmm is it your monitor going to sleep..or the machine? might the computer still be running?
if it's the computer go to power setting and change to your pref

we need to change the power options from control pannel and change the sleep options to never and then restart the laptop

its going to work

If you are turning off your computer by pressing the front panel power button, it is probably just putting Windows to sleep but not shutting the computer off. If your computer has Windows Vista, the default is to hibernate and not shut down even if you shut down through Vista. The "power save" message you see is coming from the monitor, which is letting you know it isn't getting a signal from the computer anymore but the power is still on. Windows will start up again from sleep mode if someone or something moves the mouse or presses a key.

The solution is to make sure the computer is actually shut down. In Vista you can do this by clicking the arrow near the power icon on the Start menu. This gives you the option of shutting down instead of hibernating. In XP, shut the computer down using the start menu shutdown option instead of the computer power button. Then the power will shut down completely.

fist of the click the start and click the run and type the recent and click.......ok and remove the all file in new windows

second method click the start and click the run and type the chkdsk and click.......ok

thard method click the start and click the run and type the temp and click.......ok remove the all file in new windows

It depends on how long computer is being used in a day.
for general use
you can shutdown your computer once in 2 days but i highly recommend not to put in sleep mode and betting putting in hibernate mode instead of sleep mode.
note: most of simple issues are resolved by restarting PC so you can guess now how important is to shut down computer.

Good luck,

ROB, TRY GOING INTO POWER OPTIONS AND GO THROUGH THE SETTING THERE. IT HAS DIFFERENT SETTING THAT SAY THINGS LIKE " WHEN I CLOSE THE LID ON MY LAPTOP I WANT IN TO GO TO SLEEP" ETC. YOU SHOULD FIND A SETTING THERE THAT HANDLES WHEN I HIT SHUT DOWN I WANT THE COMPUTER TO I.E. SLEEP, HIBERNATE,STANDBY. I THINK YOU SHOULD GET THE IDEA. CHECK THOSE AND SEE IF THIS HELPS SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM.

check the RAM. Take it out and reseat. also see if it runs good in safe mode. if so then you need new video drivers.
