I have updated my BIOS to the latest (1006) from ASUS for my A7S333 motherboard by following this guide: http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Boot_Floppydisk_Image_without_Floppy_using_GRUB I then added acpi=force to the kernel boot options:
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.20-15-generic root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=UUID=c33301cb-639d-47b7-b2f0-c7309a0f72cf ro quiet splash acpi=force initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.20-15-generic quiet savedefault However it still isn't shutting down like it used to. I'm thinking of trying a live CD from another distro to see if it shuts down so I can truly pin the problem on software not hardware.
