lol well i was soldering one of my wires on my computer before my trip away and i dropped solder on the mobo and cooked it and snapped off a small CPU resistor
so i killed the mobo, went out in a hurry to go buy another one in Australia and the local shop had a Gigabyte on with the same chipset so i got that one now but in the mean time my Switch i bought from our electronic store ****ed out and kepted turning on off really quick and it fried my monitor as i didn't keep the fuse on the line
so now i need to buy another monitor!
so sorry dude i never got around to working out why it wasn't turning off.
the only solution i came up with was to "soft" shutdown the comp and then once my Monitor went blue with no VGA Signal i then HARD Turned off the computer!
