Whenever I try to switch OFF my DSC-P100 it switches ON again automatically and stays ON until the batery is ompletely empty. It also woun't switch off after 3 min. of non use.
Any ideas? Thanks

This problem has happen to me several times - as you say, I switch the camera off but it immediately comes on again. My solution is to take out the battery (quickly, straight after turning it off). Usually the camera works fine after replacing the battery.This problem has happen to me several times - as you say, I switch the camera off but it immediately comes on again.

Perhaps you have an empty battery?
Just remove the battery and try charging it on an external charger. When it is charged, try again. The camera should start with retracting the lens. Perhaps you again should power down and remove the battery for a few seconds after that, but just try it.
Switching of a camera causes it to start again, like a cold boot from a computer.
Monitor your battery, because if the camera shuts down very soon after that, perhaps you need a new battery?
THIS LOOKS LIKE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH YOUR SWITCH. TAKE THE POWER SUPPLY OUT AND GIVE THE POWER BUTTON A FEW HARD PUSH .IF THIS DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM THEN THE BUTTON MIGHT HAVE TO BE CHECKED BY A TECH REGARDS.
First thing you do to power your laptop on again try removing the battery and the charger complitly leave it for 10 sec without power then press the on off switch for 2 or 3 times without puting the power or batery later try not to put the battery and put only the power adapter and start your laptop dose it starts if yes good shut it down and put the batery in and start the laptop if its starting and leave it running for cuppul of hours and then again remove the power adapter and let it run the system with batery power if it stays on and fine you are ok and fine there was just a power dump but if it fails in any case like fails to boot with power adapter and so you have adapter issue need to be checked if dosent work with batery it self its a batery issue and needs replacement .
regarding the keyboard issue you can open the kay board and clean it with contact spray if posible.
how old are the batteries and how many times they were charged without being fully drained can cause a short life for the battery. Try a new battery-fully charging it properly, but dont charge it again till it goes off by itself completely. If you have a wall charger, plug your phone in. If it stays on that way, check your 'power save' settings. That can also make your camera shut off. Try these steps first and see if it changes the 'battery' from being empty to full and stays on. hope this helps
turn on and take hold of end of lense
then gently pull and twistyou may hear it click but dont force it. then turn off and on again this should solve the problem.
Defective ccd imager!! There's an internal loose inside ccd imager. Sony will replace this ccd imager free of charge. Year 2002 up to 2005 released units has a factory defect ccd imager. the company recalled those units and replaces with a stronger version of ccd imager.( they are still doing it). check it out.
Seems like something is crushed internally a connector perhaps-
A repair manual -Huh!
They don't even repair them.
Live with it or buy another
But try Sony customer support- you will see what I mean
CCD or backlight problem?
althought your camara is not listed, try to contact them to get a disgnostic.
