Windows 8 closed do not turn off the computer.

Hello

I got windows 7 64 bit and everything worked fine, after the upgrade to windows 8, I had to update some drivers that was expected.  I remember very well not have problems during shut down my computer, I would choose Shut down and my computer would be closed and turned off as it should. Is that after a few weeks of running Windows 8 when a started problem where my computer wouldn't turn itself turned off after windows stops. I thought that maybe do a complete reset fresh windows 8 could solve the problem, but after reinstalling everything that I still have the same problem where my computer not power off. I tried disabling "quick start" to update my BIOS of motherboard.

Anyone else have a similar problem that they were able to fix?

I SOLVED MY PROBLEM!

It turns out that there is a CMOS bug with my motherboard.  What I did to solve this problem is I have reset the settings in my BIOS AND I cleared the CMOS to its default (see the manual of the motherboard manufacturer for instructions on how to reset the CMOS settings), for mine, I used a jumper.

Now, my computer stops correctly and goes off as it is supposed to.

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

  • Could not turn off the computer error: program not responding

    Original title: Power off the computer - Windows E

    When I try to shut down my computer, I get a box that says that the program is not responding.  I can stop by pressing the "Exit Now" option until all blue bars shortly arrive in the window.  In the contrary case, it crashes and I have to start over.  My system is Windows XP and my notes show there have been references to the two programs on the error message - #678 and #F14.  It's a minor inconvenience, but I want to fix it.

  • Default configuration restoration changes Windows updates do not turn off the computer

    Step 1 of the 'solution' to this error reads:

    Drag from the upper right of the screen (or if you use a mouse, move the mouse to the upper right of the screen) and then tap or click settings.

    It is impossible to do this step 1 because my computer never stops display failure message to offer a mouse or interactivity, whether... it is in an infinite loop of failure with no way to stop.  Same way as fail-safe after power reset does not work.  There is nothing I can do at all.

    You will then need to repair your computer using a recovery disc or installation media.

    Boot from the media(Instructions are here)

    and then select repair your computer in the first screen that says install now:

    Then follow option 7:

    I tried to delete a file, but must have had the folder highlighted instead and deleted instead.
    Help, please.

    If you've accidentally deleted bookmarks, then use "organize > Cancel ' in the Bookmark Manager (Bookmarks > show all bookmarks) to recover.

    Hold the button is the first of three buttons next to the back and forward buttons on the toolbar in the library (Bookmark Manager).

    That only works if you have not closed Firefox.

    Otherwise, you need to restore the bookmarks from a JSON backup.

  • Stuck on the screen "Please wait" or "Configuring windows. Do not turn off your computer.

    I'm under 64-bit Windows 8

    Apparently, I scanned my system with a complete analysis of the system (AVAST) and my computer left thinking that it would take several hours. When I came back, my computer automatically shut down because it was left idle for about 4 hours. I don't know if the scan is finished. When I try to start, the screen becomes screen stuck on "Please wait" or "windows setup. Do not turn off your computer.

    I already tried to go on the System Recovery Options screen, then will solve the problems, then Advanced Options, but I tried everything what it and the problem persists even when I tried to start in safe mode. I tried to go to the command prompt, and then type sfc / scannow, but he says he cannot parse now. I also tried chkdsk / R, but it said the same thing. I don't know how to run cmd as administrator from the System Recovery Options.

    So now I tried to use system restore, but I'm stuck on the logo of windows for about 1 and a half hour. I don't know if I have to wait for it or it is already blocked. In other forums I've read, they were using only the Group of drive 'C:' connected with system restore. Should I do this?

    I think to delete AVAST or turn it off somehow.

    Please help me.

    Problem solved

    I would like to share how I solved the problem. I was able to start using the windows 8 cd and in the window that asks you the language of the windows 8 needs to be installed, you can see below "computer repair".

    After clicking on it, it automatically prompts me for advanced boot parameters. First I tried the auto repair, but it says the same thing, '.. '. can't fix right now... »
    So I tried the option "pc refresh. I waited a few minutes to cool to do and after the process, it is more hung please wait screen when starting.

    Once connected, I installed programs have been removed. In the local disk files, there is a new "windows.old folder ' showing all programs that I have the old system. Re-install program is easy and the best thing is that I have my computer back.

    My deep gratitude to those who helped me. Thank you!

    Greetings,

    I installed updates in my Windows 8.1 partition.  Then he asked me to restart the computer, and the message "we could not finish updates, exchange loss, do not turn off your computer" appeared and was on-screen for hours.  I thought to reinstall bootcamp but I have software in the Windows partition that cannot be recovered.  I read that one of them starts Windows in 'Safe' Mode, but this is not possible. I use a MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, early 2015) OS X 10.10.5

    How can I fix this without wiping the Windows partition and lose my software?

    Hi, I just refreshed my laptop that I got a few drops FPS at random. Initially, it worked fine, but after a while before instaled Norton started to cause me problems. At this time I uninstalled it and when he asked me to computer restatr now, I did. Now I'm stuck with this message window loading. Restart the computer from time to time, but the message is always the same: failure of configuration of Windows updates. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer.

    At the moment I'm stuck on this window for over an hour and nothing has changed

    Seems that problem solved by itself. As I correctly uninstalled Norton, I just put my automatic updates and restarted my laptop again. He installed the updates with no problem and its working fine. Seems that Norton was really the problem, will keep you informed.
