Bug when closing computer

[Guest]

Hello, I own a brand new HP Pavilion dv9000 notebook and been using it with
windows vista since January 31st. I've found a problem:
When I said to Windows Vista to shut down, I closed my notebook cap to store
it in my backpack, and then later I discovered that it was in sleep mode.
When it got back from sleep mode, it shown the "closing computer ..." message
and then it shut down. Maybe you should do something to prevent the computer
to go in sleep mode when it is closing.

Setting when closing cap on battery: Sleep mode

have a look in the advanced energy options in control panel.

you can define very exactly what to do and what not when running in
different power-modes.

This has been drastically improved over xps power-schemes.

Also notice that the default behaviour for the "power off" buttons (
physical and in startmenu ) are set to sleep/standby and not to "powerdown".
You can change that, like i said in the applet for energy.

That's no bug

I figured out it happens this way:

When you shut down Vista, it proceed to shutdown as instructed but you
immediately close the notebook lib which has another instruction that tells
the system to "standby". Since it is a system instruction, it has higher
priority.
As a result, it proceeded to standby while it was doing a "shutdown"
(shutdown did not complete).

The next time you need to shutdown, let the system complete full shutdown
before you close the lib of the notebook.
Alternatively, set the power option to shutdown the computer rather than
standby when closing the lib of the notebook (not preferred)

Cheers,
