Windows shuts down, Computer stays on
My Issue:
I shut down windows 7, and it seems to, but the computer fans / lights / drives /Ram all still have power. I've read through the posts and it seems there were some interesting ideas back in 09 on how to fix it, I tried searching my power options and making sure everything was set properly, etc. I even re-flashed my bios. I didn't make any major changes like add new hardware / software, only some windows updates that I've now rolled-back. Did anyone actually resolve this issue? It looks like one or two people just had to adjust a power setting, but that does not seem to be my issue. I don't want to re-install windows because I've been reading other forums where people have tried that and it didn't fix anything...
