    Lightbulb Windows 2k shutdown help....PLEASE

    Can someone tell me how to enable windows 2k to shutdown completely? It's an ATX case and used to shutdown on it's on with 98. When i clicked shutdown, it used to just power off by itself, and now it says it's safe to turn off ur computer. Is there any way i can fix that? This is an installation for someone else. My computer is a very similar power supply, ATX, same specs, and mine shuts down all the way. Please help. thanks in advance.

    Thanks alot NDC. It just so happens that last night i tried checking off advanced power management support in the power options. This enabled it to shut down, but it took a long time, I used the site u gave me and added the 1 to enable the power down and it worked great. Thanks alot NDC.

    Same problem with ME. Looked in registry -- no such value. Shuts down in safe mode. If I clear all boot-up entries in msconfig, still no shutdown.
