Close / sleep on vista computer functions to restart instead

When I try to select "shut down," the computer still restarts instead, but then on the second try, it always stops. Also, when I close the laptop (that I have designated for sleep) or select the day before on the menu, he stops and restarts. This problem occurred a year ago, but disappeared for some reason, when I was in school, but now she's back.

  • My desktop Dell - Vista - computer does not, the monitor says no entry and have to wake up computer

    I have a desktop Dell Vista computer.  A few days earlier, when I pressed the power button to turn it on, nothing happened.  When I turned on the monitor, he says that he came into power saving mode.  When I checked the monitor once again, he said that there is no entry for the computer and press any key of the keyboard or mouse to wake up.

    The computer is plugged in and the green light in the back is on.  I don't remember putting the computer to sleep.  I thought I made a stop for a few days in advance.  Press and hold the power button on the computer does not start it or turn it off.  There is no sound (such as a fan).  I unplugged the computer briefly a few times, and then I finally unplugged overnight and is plugged in.  Light lights up in the back, but is not the "num lock" key on the keyboard and the light under the mouse does not light.

    I checked a few suggestions on this site, but they all require that the computer be on and you enter in this form or the screen.  Is the computer dead?

    Thanks in advance.
