shutdown, restart and logoff do not work if following this path: START -

SHUTDOWN - REASTART, SHUTDOWN, LOGOFF CURRENT USER. It will shut down

manually in about 2 seconds, but I know repeated "hard shutdowns" are not

good for my PC. Installed is WIN2000 SP4 O.S.

 

I was told it was prolly a setup in my BIOS , but I went through that

yesterday and could not find a place for shutdown or restart.

 

Any info will be helpful, the more detailed the better.

 

 

Thanx,

Tony L.

Hello Tony,

 

What do you mean wiht your "path"? Do you choose all the options one after

the other?

Re: shutdown, restart, logoff

 

Hello Tony,

 

How long did you wait until you press the power button? It exists a policy

that clears the RAM before shutting down.

 

Best regards

Re: shutdown, restart, logoff

 

We have waited as long as over night. It does nothing but shut off our

anti-virus and it shuts off my Webshots, it has been this way ever since we

loaded windows on it.
