    Hello all...

    I was copying some files from a CD and the explorer stopped responding, so I had to force the laptop to shut down by pressing the power button ..
    and since then, every time i turn off the computer and after the screen goes off, the volume, media, wireless and power lights remain on after the shut down for around 10 minutes .. what can i do to fix this problem?
    anyone can help? thanks :confused:

    You could try a hard reset:
    Unplug the laptop, and take the battery out. Then, hold the power button down for 30 seconds. Plug your laptop back in and see if that fixed the problem.
