I've had the same problem (periodically--by which I mean at times the
machine powers down and at other times it does not) for years.
When it does not the message "Power Down" appears on the console screen.
The shutdown is "clean," however, so when the failure occurs I just
press the button for four seconds (or is that five?).
Is this what you're referring to? The terminology is, perhaps, tricky:
my machine shutdown fine; sometimes it just doesn't power off.
Of course, this autobiographical aside is of no help to you, so I'll bow
out of the thread with my customary grace.
Good luck.
