If you are using "Enable Advanced Power Support" when the failure occurs, try to cancel it. If the failure occurs, you are using the cancel "advanced power support" and try to enable it. Will be solved.

3. USB devices are not worrying

Now when USB devices are popular, what U disk, mouse, keyboard, modem, etc., are all available. As everyone knows, these USB devices are often the main culprit for shutdown failures.

An external USB Hub connects the USB device to the USB Hub instead of directly to the USB port on the motherboard.

■ Shut down to give you a big blue face
