Shutdown does not power off computer

I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and I'm getting a serious bug:

When I try to shutdown my system, my screen goes blank but my CPU fan keeps running, i.e. the processor is still working but I am not able to see anything on my screen. I need to power off my machine for a complete shutdown.

I am using a desktop with an Intel P4 processor. I found a solution on the internet involving modifying the GRUB config file. But even after doing so I wasn't able to eliminate the issue.

What steps id you follow to modify the GRUB configuration? Did you run sudo update-grub afterwards? – nanofarad Sep 16 '12 at 14:48
This solution will likely work for you. By the way, this should be reported as a bug if it hasn't been already. (You may want to check the bugs listed here.) – Eliah Kagan Sep 16 '12 at 17:42
