    Hi all,

    Bought a new Acer Aspire at the weekend, and after shutting down, the green power light flashes. However, the computer is off - when I press the power button, it powers back up again. Why is the green light flashing and how do I stop it?


    Thanks in advance :)

    Yes, it's a Vista model.

    It's after I press the shutdown button. How do I change this?
