Good luck.... these are difficult to troubleshoot without knowing all the hardware in your system.

if you try all the solution above and didnt work try this ,

remove all the pci or isa card and check if its shutting down properly . If that is the case ,
put it back one by one and find put the culpit and the remove and reinstall its driver or try changing slot with otherpci card .
