Laptop doesn't completely shutdown, keyboard CAPS, WIFI, POWER BUTTON and MOUSE PAD led still on.

[ Edited ]

As the title.

 

From the system information, my laptop is a HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC. I have not done any changes to my laptop when this problem occur. I was gaming 1 day when the laptop hang, and nothing responded. I did a force shutdown (press and hold power button). When i tried to turn it back on, it didn't work, so i remove the battery and place it back again. This time my laptop was back, however, after i shutdown, i noticed it was not completed, the LEDs stated were still on. I will have to force shutdown again using the power button. I can conclude that the shutdown was successful as when i turn the laptop on, it does not prompt me to run the pc in safemode and etc. Whenever i close my lid and open it again, it will go into that "uncomplete shutdown" stage.

 

I've tried to interchange the RAM and the problem still persist.

 

I hope i did give a clear description of my issue.

P.S   Pardon my bad english.

 

I hope to get a reply and solution from the HP team.

 

Thank you.

 

With regards,

Tom

Hi,

Perform Hard reset :
  1. Unplug the AC adapter from the notebook PC.
  2. Remove the computer from any port replicator or docking station, disconnect cables to printers or devices such as external monitors, USB memory sticks or SD cards, headset or external speakers, mouse or auxiliary keyboard, turn off WIFI and Bluetooth wireless devices.
  3. Remove the battery from the notebook battery compartment.
  4. Press and hold down the power button for about 1 minute to drain any residual electrical charge from the capacitors that protect the memory.
  5. Insert the battery and plug the AC adapter back into the notebook PC, but do not connect any of the peripheral devices.
  6. Press the power button to turn the notebook PC back on.

Check the result.

@sergiostars

 

Hi,

1. Have you updated system, installed/updated any software or installed/updated any driver before this problem showed up?

2. Do you remember when this problem showed up?
