During the 3 years I have had my laptop, I found a weird glitch in the Vista OS. Sometimes when I shut down my computer the screen goes blank, and I cannot wake it up. I assume the Vista OS had shut down, but it didn't shut down the computer. Is this a glitch or am I just not waiting long enough (10 mins) for the computer to shut down?
