win98: how reboot more faster and turn off automatic?

[MERCURY127]

this is EXACTLY what do ACPIOFF.

You could "restart" instead of "shut down" and then press power button momentarily after the machine has restarted as an alternative shutdown.

Mercury: lets go back.. i'm restarting again... everything.

when i execute the 'WINOFF16.EXE' the windows will reboot(not the computer... just the windows).... i download it from 1st post.

like i said, we are restarting. so what you can tell me more?

[MERCURY127]

1) u need place fdapm AND winexit.bat into windir;

2) winoff16 - it for win3x ONLY. for win9x use patched win.com;

3) acpioff work ONLY IF system was installed in NON-ACPI mode, ie with "/p i" switch;

4) if all three prev steps done - system must turn off when select Shut down here

 i just did(windows folder)... then i turn off, but the computer don't down

[Joaquim]

the 'winexit.bat' can turn off the pc... but i miss something.. i need change the name 'fdapm' to 'win' or somethind?

[Joaquim]

i knew that i forgot something.. so i read all posts and i re-read:

"- extract WINEXIT.BAT, FDAPM.COM, WIN.ENG to WINDIR,
- rename WIN.ENG to WIN.COM with replace,"

i did and shutdown the computer.. and then turn off automatic.

Mercury127 it's normal take some time for turn off?

[MERCURY127]

Hallelujah!
i properly understand, that NOW acpioff WORK for u?

[Joaquim]

Yes.... Thanks so much for all

[Joaquim]

[MERCURY127]

what "IT"? acpioff? WinME is not use win.com, so even if make, patch be useless...

[Joaquim]
