Mine did that yesterday 15 minutes before a lesson, nothing to do with my pussy it just randomly did it. Quick, panicked, phone call to my step dad and Ta Da! I was worried that I'd have to teach my lesson with my head the wrong way round though!

How do you switch it off when you are done with it?

if you just close it or leave it to go into sleep mode that first time you boot it up it could be trying to wake up from sleep and failing - pressing and holding it will shut it all down then the next time it will load ok

when you are finished using the laptop try shutting it down properly (Click start then shutdown) and try booting it up again and see if the same thing happens

If its less than 12 months old take it back. It is still under warrenty so they should fix or replace it.

Also if you registered it with Advent when you got it you don't need the reciept. They will have the Serial Number logged and will know exactly when it was sold.

Another option is go into the control panel and select power option and it will list various commands which will make the computer shut down or go to sleep!

Just a thought
