    Hi, I have a Lenovo K330b and recently this problem started. When I shut down the computer, the fan starts. The fan will run all night if I don't unplug it.

    TIA, Michael

  2. The light on the power button stays on even after shut down.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    As per your description, I understand that the light on the power button stays on even after shut down.

    We will assist you to resolve the issue.

    This issue may arise due to various reasons:


    • System not properly shut down or might be in sleep mode.

    • Power cord connected to the device.

    • Change in the settings.
    I would appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.


    • What is the make and model of the computer?

    • Did you make any recent changes to the settings?

    • Does the CPU fan spins after the shutdown?
    As an initial troubleshooting step, (if you are using a laptop).

    Unplug the charger from the lap top and check if the issue persists and also try to shut down from the lock screen.

    If the issue persists, I suggest you to run the Power troubleshooter and check if it helps.

    Follow these steps to run Power troubleshooter:

    1. Type troubleshooting in the search bar.

    2. Select Troubleshooting.

    3. Select View all on the top left corner.

    4. Click on Power.

    5. Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.

    6. Check if issue persists.

    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.

  3. Computer stays on after windows shut down.

    Hi,

    Based on the issue you are experiencing that all the fans and lights remain on even after you successfully shut down your computer, this could be related to how the actual devices were setup or the settings on the different hardware components in your computer.
    Since turning off the power supply completely turns off the fans and lights, it is possible that there is just configuration that needs to be changed to get the hardware to respond properly. We suggest the you contact the manufacturer or refer to the manual
    of the different hardware components that have to resolve the issue.

    Feel free to reach out to us for further concern.

    Fan comes on and stays on after shutting down computer.

    ASUS Computer keeps Shutting Down - Windows 10

    I have a computer that is "refurbished" from Amazon, which I bought a month ago. Here are what was in it:

    ASUS M52BC Desktop Computer

    AMD FX-4200 3.8 GHz Quad Core

    Nvidia GeForce GT 640

    Actel AcBel HBA005 350W Power Supply

    And here is in short what is happening:

    • Computer is randomly shutting down, which started a week ago. At first it could take up to a few hours to shutdown. Since this morning I can only get it to stay on for 15 minutes at a time.
    • When it shuts down, it doesn't automatically restart. Sometimes after a few minutes it will try to restart, but it will just kick the fans on for a second and then cut power again.
    • Sometimes when it shuts down, if I push the power button it will just
      kick the fans on for a second
      as well, then will cut power. When this happens, I have to push the button again and it works

    I have stripped it down all I can think to do. I have unplugged the HDD (running on a SSD that I installed), took out the RAM that I added, unplugged the CD Drive, limited the processor to 25% in Windows Power options (which helped it stay on a couple minutes
    longer than usual), unplugged my second monitor, started in safe mode.

    Tempuratures seem to be ok. I monitored the temperatures using Speccy (I think that was what its called) and the CPU and MoBo stay under 40 C, while the GPU stays under 55 C (both of these are the max I have seen after it was running for
    a while).

    I also used Speccy to check voltages, and they all seem to be ok (last frame before the system shut down listed (+12V) 12.261 V, (+5V) 5.017 V, (CPU Core) 1.392 V, (+3.3V) 3.162 V

    If you need any more information I can provide it! I have spent hours scrolling forums which usually suggest PSU or overheating issues, but I have ruled those out (I think?).Thank you for your suggestions!
