I have a Packard Bell computer (366 MHz Celeron, 392 M RAM, 8 GB HD) which was running Win98SE and running ok. I upgraded it to Win XP Home which is running just fine, but now when I shut it down, I get the "It's safe to turn your computer off" message after XP shuts down and I have to manually shut the computer off (5 seconds). When it was running Win 98SE, it automatically turned the computer off when I shut down Win. 
Where is the control that will automatically turn the computer off when XP shuts down?
