Hi Edward - Thanks for the suggestion, it worked, I had held it in for a 
longish press, but probably only about 4 seconds, but a little longer has 
worked. Hurrah! -

| Hi Andy,
|
| You probably have, but have you tried holding the power button in? it may
| take over 5 seconds.

| Hi all -
|
| No, not a personal message to any individual, but my problem with my 
laptop!
|
| What happens is, that I have some touch media keys across the plastic 
strip
| above the function keys on my laptop, and these trigger certain things, 
one
| of which seems to be to launch  "quick Play" [or some such name] 
programme,
| that seems to hog the machine, and I lose not just JFW, but Narrator too! 
My
|
| attempts to reboot from using short cut keys, doesn't work, but neither 
does
|
| pressing the off/on button.
|
| The laptop is just sitting there, I can't turn it off! Something must be
| hogging the screen [maybe that media software programme thing] but I don't
| understand why the power button won't switch it off!
|
| Any thoughts good people? -
|
| Andy
