Hi guys I am running Osx Mavericks on Dell inpiron 3542 core i3 CPU with intel graphics card 4400. I am now having a problem with shutting down issue AFTER i have used it for more than 3 hours. if I use my laptop less than 3 hrs eveything is perfect but if more than that, then it will become a trouble.

 

Please help

well there are allot of things that happen in 3 hours that can affect things. 
1 having the machine sleep and wake can cause issues with hardware being relocated to hpet

2 power management not properly initialized

3 usb power management / initialization issues 

4 need DSDT shutdown fix.

 

maybe a better description on your exact shutdown problem might help weed out something.

I did that on Terminal and I see this coming out. Is that correct??

yes that sounds right if you want to check if the setting took you can type in 

pmset -g

and it should list everything

another command you try is 

pmset -g assertions

assertions can also give issues with sleep the command would list what is giving issues to at least hopefully help you track down the culprit

 

having wake from lan/ethernet set to on in bios can also cause hangs at sleep/shutdown.
