If i unplug power computer is shut down - Toshiba Satellite A105-S4064 (4400 mAh)

I would definitely advise against unplugging any type computer while it's running. You should always shut it down before turning off the power. When it's running the hard drive is spinning really fast and turning it off without shutting down is the best way to damage the drive. After it's damaged it won't work.

Reset to Default settings, if that does not work, shut down printer, unplug power from printer, shut down computer unplug power from computer, wait 20 seconds, plug power in to computer plug power in to printer, wait 5 seconds, boot computer, turn on printer.

NOTE: This should solve most problems with printers.

If still not working you have a faulty Toner unit.

Perform a hard shut down on your computer by holding the power button down for roughly 6-8 seconds. After that, take out the battery and unplug the power cord. Once that is done, hold the power button down for 10-15 seconds. This will reset the computers cache. This might solve your computers not shutting down issue.

Try pressing and holding the power button until the computer shuts down.
Also note that when removing the battery, you also need to unplug the power cord in order to shut down the computer in that manner.

It could mean your power supply is about to go. Unplug it and reboot the computer when you get into windows look for power options in the control panel ! Set it to a different scheme such as always on. Then try shutting down to see if it works.

Try draining the power of the computer first. completely shut it down by pressing poweer button for like 5-7 sec. then unplug power supply from the outlet. then press and hold power button for another 15-20 sec. After that, plug back in the power cord, and turn computer on normally.

disable maxtor before shutting down the PC to narrow down the problem.

It is probably not shutting down because there is a program running that will not shut down. Unnstall programs you no longer use and do a virus scan, often the programs that refuse to shut down are malicious. Holding down the power button for 5 seconds should shut down the computer (it signals the motherboard to power down). As for the black screen, not enough detail for me to say.

More information would help to resolve this issue.

Are you shutting down by selecting Start and shutdown or have you tried pushing the power button on push (not holding the power button)?

Try this:
Press and hold the power button in solidly for about 10 seconds. If it shuts down before you get to 10 just let off the power button. This should work, but may not solve the problem.

If you reboot it and still can not shut down from Windows, hold power button until it shuts down, unplug the power cord and disconnect everything from the computer other than the keyboard, mouse and monitor. With the power plug still unplugged, hold the power button in for about 15 seconds (this resets the power supply and can clear a corrupt BIOS).

Reconnect power and after booting, see if you can shut down from Windows.

If still no go, click Start, Programs, Accessories, System tools and select System Restore.

Follow the prompts and select a bold date back to a time before you had problems shutting down. That should do the trick.

Let me know if you get it fixed or if you need more advice.
