Computer Shut Down

[walkingsticks75]

When ever I turn off my HP printer my Windows Vista computer shuts down and when I notified HP about the problem they alleged my chipset needs updating, yet my computer is only 9 months old I upgraded it to 4GB three months ago and according to Dell my chipset is compatible to the HP. What other things could cause a computer to shut down whenever the printer is turned off?

and you didn't mention that you actually updated your chipset drivers or not. Did you?

I talked to Dell and they assured me my chipset driver was up todate

this is a driver problem. try a different version (first uninstall the ones you have).
If that doesn't work then the problem is windows related and only a fresh install will solve it. try windows 7 while you're at it. (the free RC or the final build, both work just fine)
