    I notice when I open the computer the keyboard lights are on, and the eject butten is on. How do I wake the computer from this state, as I have to hold the power button and shut down.

    Thanks

    Which BIOS version are you on?

    Happens to me too. If I'm in a hurry, I do a hard shutdown or else I wait and it usually sorts itself out in 5+ minutes. I think this might actually be a Vista bootloader problem because it didn't happen until I loaded Windows 7, messed up my bootloader, and manually fixed it.
