Hello,

How can i get my machine to power off when doing the shutdown command, instead of waiting then turning it off? Yes it is ATX powered, so i'm assuming some regedit hacking? I can't find any option to do it for me.

Cheers

Paul

Hello,

Thanks for th reply. I found that information out yesterday

I tried it out, but no luck, i don't think my motherboard supports it. Its an Acer 6500/6200 pentium 2 mobo from 1997. I know it can suspend to disk, but not software power off, well not that i can find.

Thanks.

Paul
