I use the following code to shutdown my computer

HANDLE hToken;
TOKEN_PRIVILEGES tkp;
OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(),TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES | 
TOKEN_QUERY, &hToken);
LookupPrivilegeValue(NULL, SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME,&tkp.Privileges[0].Luid);
tkp.PrivilegeCount = 1;
tkp.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;
AdjustTokenPrivileges(hToken, FALSE, &tkp, 0,(PTOKEN_PRIVILEGES)NULL,0);
ExitWindowsEx(EWX_SHUTDOWN | EWX_FORCE, 0);

the problem is that this works fine on my PC, but on my laptop it closes 
everything and freezes leaving only the wallpaper and mouse cursor. Am I 
doing something wrong, can someone suggest me how to fix this.
Thanx in advance.
