You need to hold down the button on the laptop, rather than just clicking it once.



If that doesn't work, go to start > turn off computer.



Hope that helps.

Keep your finger on the power button till it shuts off.

Next time u boot it might bring up a menu offering u various boot options, choose boot windows normally and press return.

Windows does this every now and again, its usually a program running in the background that for some reason windows cant terminate, so it waits a bit, then it waits more........



edit: Javon A, that registry cleaner thing your advertising below looks dodgy.

I love the way their website gives a completely false report on your computers status and there are over 10 links to download the .exe (including 2 on the banner at the top) on the homepage.

The download might be "100% free" but looking at their testimonials (which look made up as well, its weird that most of them have the same bad grammar lol), several mention "best software of its type iv ever purchased" or "good value for money", i reckon u will have 2 fork out the folding stuff at some point, probably after its `found` these errors (yup, tis listed at $39 on other sites).

So its not free, liars. wouldn't touch it with a bargepole lol



If u want a registry cleaner, get the freeware ccleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/

take the battery out if you need to shut it off then put it back in and do a system restore on it if possible.Do it with the restore cds or dvds or maybe even the recovery partition of your hard drive by pressing the f12 ,or f 10 key when the computer starts.

Unplug the power cord and remove the battery. Reinstall the battery and plug the cord back in before you restart the computer. It should start normally now.

Let the battery run out and die, then plug the cord in and start it back up that should fix the problem.

I think you should hold the off button longer!
