Shutdown / Sleep fail

[Guest]

I have Vista Ultimate with an ASUS P5BPlus Vista MB with the associated ASUS
utilities, incl AI Nap and AI remote.

When I use the "start" button menu to sleep Vista it seems to enter sleep
then immediately reawaken, a similar thing happens if I shut down via that
menu. I can however enter AI nap using the ASUS remote and shut down using
the AI remote button. The power off switch causes the same problem as the
"start" button menu.

Is there an issue with Vista Ultimate shutdown functions generally? or is
the interaction with the ASUS utilities problematic (they claim to be Vista
compatable).

Thanks in advance for any help.

Update your ACPI drivers. choose the option to update from the net.

Already any solution available?

I am going to try updating the ACPI drivers as suggested above - will post
result - here's hoping.

No joy. I tried updating anything that looked like an ACPI driver but the
update said all were the best/latest available.

Same here,
installing latest ACPI driver doesn't work either.

It seems a lot of people experience this annoying problem, hoping Microsoft
already work to fix this.
I worry turning off pc without proper shutdown will break my HD and losing
my data.
