You probably just switched from an AT case to an ATX case?  This is
normal behavior for ATX cases and motherboards.  I just upgraded to an
ATX case and motherboard and I find this behavior to be very annoying.
I had to reset my system many times trying to resolve problems during
the upgrade and found it annoying that I had to reach down and push the
power button after every full shutdown.  I've not looked for ways around
this yet.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Lost Win98 Closing Down Message


I have just rebuilt my system and upgraded my operating system to
Windows 98 second edition.

I now find on closing down that the windows 98 screen is displayed and
then the machine immediatley switches off. Before upgrading I used to
get the message that it was OK to switch of the machine on closing down.
This does not appear to be causing problems (eg no scan disk at startup)
but other win98 systems I have seen seem to close down in what I
consider is the normal way.
