Laptop restarts instead of hibernating or shutting down
I have a 1525 laptop that wants to stay awake most of the time. I have it set to hibernate when the cover closes. It behaves most of the time, but occasionally it decides to restart instead of hibernating. When it's acting up, it will do the restart if you try to put it in hibernation, sleep or if you try to shut it down. The only way to kill the thing is to do a hard shutdown using the power button. It's annoying to say the least, since you can't just close it and walk away. If it restarts with the cover closed, it gets way too hot.

I also need to know this answer for my computer is doing the same thing. It just started happening this month and it's never happened. I am above-average computer savvy but this is really angering me.

The same thing has been happening to my M14xR1 whether I want it to sleep or hibernate, it restarts half the time. Occassionally it will resort to BSOD with error: Internal_power_error. It also just began happening the past 4-5 weeks.
