there is no code, just a blue screen and i have to hold the power button to switch it off.
Specs?
What OS?
Is this new behavior of has that computer always done that?
Is it the blue screen of death Blue or simply windows shutdown blue?

Start>Run>enter "regedit"> in the lefthand window go to HKEY CURRENT USER>Control Panel>Desktop>in the R/H window find "AutoEndTasks">double click and change the value from "0" to "1".
Might work and won't hurt.
