VPCEC3S0E - No Shutdown!!

[levilyn]

I am having problems shutting down my computer.  I click shutdown it goes through the shutting down process and then re-starts again.  Can anyone suggest anything.  I have just done a full factory restore but it is still doing it.:smileysad:

I have now tried to uninstall Vaio Care. But even though it appears to have gone it still loads it when the machine switches itself back on. Very frustrating.

Hi Lynda,

I can't be certain on this but I'm beginning to suspect that you have a faulty/sticking Vaio Assist button.

If this is the case all I can suggest is to shut down, remove the battery and power adaptor and then try tapping the button a few times to see whether this will free it up - then reattach battery and adaptor and see whether it still turns itself on.
