I've just installed Windows 7 build 7600 on my computer. Everything runs fine except that every time I shutdown my computer it never turns the PSU off. The screen is black, but I still hear the PSU fan spinning. I have to hold down the power button to make it turn off.

I tried booting Damn Small Linux and shutdown. It was able to turn the PSU off.

Any help?

Thanks in advance.

perhaps you have it set to hibernate or suspend instead of shutingdown

I was sure that it was shutdown button that I pressed. I even typed "shutdown /s /t 0" into the command prompt and got the same result.
The funny thing is sleep works fine and even stopped my PSU fan properly.

I reinstalled the OS. Now everything works fine.
