You gotta make sure ACPI/APM is enabled in your bios, and then make sure everything is set right under your power options in control panel. then it should shut off for ya :)
 
;) All you have to do is go to control panel,power options,apm tab and check the enable advanced power managment support box and your computer should shutdown automaticly.:)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
