Go to the control panel/power settings applet and see if you have an APM
tab.   If you do, enable APM and your computer should shut down normally.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Auto Case Power Off


I have what I hope is an easy question to answer. I was running Windows 98
and when i would shutdown the computer, when it was suppose to say "you may
turn off you computer now" would automaticly power off for me. Now I am
running Windows XP Pro and it will not shut the power off automaticly. I
like that feature and would like to turn it on for XP.

have FIC SD-11 motherboard...(soon changing thought)
AMD athlon 600 Mhz
case:?? just says CS on it

P.S. I have removeable hard drive racks so I can swap back and forth between
my windows 98 and XP, 98 STILL does it so that elimiates anything in BIOS

Thank for any help you can offer!!!!
