If that doesnt work, I had a similar problem before. It can be caused by a persistent program not wanting to shut down. Try logging off, and then pressing shut down.

In addition to the others suggestions, the laptop not waking from sleep, could be a result of drivers not supporting sleep. This is especially true with legacy drivers and hardware.
