Hi guys Update on this shutdown issue,i said that this Lenovo Thinkcenter desktop wouldn't shutdown the normal way in Win 10,but in Linux it would shutdown ok,
this was on Feb 16,well today i went and tried win 10 again just by swapping the hard drive from my other same Lenovo thinkcenter modle# and for my surprise it shuts off ok 8 months later, i guess Win 10 is more and more polished,and since i had updated Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04 and Ati fglrx is not included with 16.04 and i had no way of adjust over scan on my old lcd tv,now with win 10 there is support for Radeon Software Crimson Edition Graphics Driver Installer for Windows 10 64-Bit
