  1. Laptop does not shut down.


    After pressing the shut down button, it says shutting down on the screen and it turns off, but the laptop remains on, the fans still spinning and keyboard backlight still going, none of the buttons work, and the only thing I am able to do at that point is holding the power button to force shut down the laptop, which also causes problem when turning it on again.I know this is a issue that could be fixed by turning fast startup off i havent tried it yet, but shift + shutdown does tend to shut down the laptop but I am looking for a proper fix so that I dont have to disable fast startup.

    :)
