Hi Michael, I don't think it is a hardware issue because when I boot to Windows and shutdown from there, the system shutdowns properly. The problem occurs only on Debian.
In fact I had the 3.2 kernel before and I had no shutdown issue , however I had to install the new kernel 3.16 because I was having other compatibility issues with the 3.2 kernel. It is after that I have installed the new kernel that the problem occured.
