    My laptop isn't rebooting all the way. The screen will go black, but it will just sit there until I hold the power button down and power the laptop back on. I am currently using the 9c.17.00 bios. I flashed to 9c.23.00 and the issue went away, but I did not like the higher gpu temps so I reverted back to 9c.17.00. The problem is back.

    any feedback would be appreciated.

    also, I have the p7807u

    Thank you TANWare. I guess I was not searching correctly, but my issue is now resolved. I have had this laptop for a year and a half now and I love it, so thanks again.

    Now all I have to do is install my x9100 thats on its way
