Hello everyone.
I have a MB ASUS P5K-E WiFi.
I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit as the new installation.
I did update the drivers on the asus site.
Unfortunately I can not solve my problem.
Since I Win7 my pc does not turn off more completely. All the fans are
turned on and the only way to shut it down and hold the power button for more
than 4 seconds.

Hibernation and Suspend mode, work properly.
Only the shutdown process does not allow switching off the fans.
If shutdown the system, only way to turn it back on, is to press Reset
button of the case.

With Vista and XP had no problems.

How can I fix?
Thank you all for your help.

Because of the people who have misused this newsgroup, Microsoft has created
a brand new moderated website for questions about Windows 7. I typed in your
problem on that site as "Windows 7 will not shut down". It immediately took
me to threads on your problem. The site is

Believe me, you will be better off there than here!

That is only your personal assumption.
This is nowhere stated.

Why should I believe you?

Microsoft forums, how many do you want?
[url]http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/category/w7itpro[/url]
[url]http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/categories[/url]

And of course no forums for other languages, while there are many
Microsoft newsgroups for a lot of countries.

No but it's the obvious conclusion, isn't it?

Not really when you consider the vitriol that exists/existed in XP
General. Remember microscum.com and the long flaming threads between
Leythos and Kurtrail?

I'm convinced that it's just another instance of Microsoft wanting to
control their users. They've even created a "bridge" so one can access
the web forums with Windows Live Mail.

Alias

Thanks

Hello Tony,
thanks for posting my problem on the new site dedicated to Windows 7.
I tried to look under the title "Windows 7 will not shutdown", but I have
not found anything.
Please you can write me the link of the thread?
Thanks again, Mino.

No, it's not. MS is often very slow to create newsgroups.

That aside I'd be more inclined to believe that they've made a general
decision that newsgroups will not be used in the future. With the AG
in NY causing most ISP's to drop USEnet (or at least giving them a
good excuse), the USEnet has even less of a chance to survive in the
coming years. MS has probably just decided to retire from the
business, and as the older products mature out, the NNTP servers will
fade away.

As Microsoft tells us nothing, it is open to speculation why Microsoft
seems to have decided not to open Windows7 newsgroups.
Some speculations look more obvious than other speculations,
but they are just speculations and nothing more.

As to the "social" forums, I read in a lot of forums, but I do not want
to have to login in each and every forum I see.
Also in a forum I cannot use a killfile to avoid having to read the
"dribble" of some individuals I do not want to read.

But most of all I resent that Microsoft refuses to open anything in
"foreign" languages, I find that most rude of Microsoft.
One can see many "microsoft.public.*" newsgroups in a lot of languages.
I see not excuse whatsoever, why Microsoft now wants everything
exclusively in the En-US language.
(and in the Dutch newsgroups microsoft.public.nl.windows.vista is and
will be used for questions for both Windows7 *and* WindowsVista.)

It looks like Microsoft is turning into a closed society that prefers to
avoid anything "foreign".
This attitude was once called "Splendid Isolation".
History shows that this attitude resulted in very negative results.
