    Yeah i think ill go down the win re install. Do you mind if i ask, are both of you anything to do with the technical support for pc specialist, because if you are seperate i can still run this by them, as im still in warranty.

    PCSPECIALIST Shutdown and restart

    i did consider this a few days ago thinking it might have been a pc case power button issue but opted to keep going with other stuff and ultimately the forum. I think the linux mint route may be a game changer in this discussion

    PCSPECIALIST Shutdown and restart

    Ok soooo installed linux mint onto pen drive, did a hard reboot, had to go into settings to get a boot menu, where i booted from the pen drive. Got into linux all ok. And did a shutdown and voila it shut down and remained shut down. So im quietly pleased that its not a hardware issue.
