If your motherboard's BIOS actually supports ACPI, Windows should have been installed by invoking the setup program in win98/win9x folder on the installation CD from the command line like:

setup /p j

You can't avoid the message to turn off the computer if your hardware lacks ACPI support because such computer can't be turned off by software.

I hope nota get the unlock error when detect the hardware.

Before i format again. I need more 1 advice. Why when se execute a DOS game, the screen stays black?

I only get these problem on Spear of Destiny game. I tried several versions with same problem. The screen GOES black but its only the window

yes... but it look as very special problem, related with @Joaquim hardware or system only...

Yep, but the other thread is also started by the same Joaquim and apparently on exactly the same topic. :dubbio:

so i will try re-install windows 98(maybe i will get more from MS-DOS).

i will try the 'setup /p j' for test if i can install the windows and turn off the computer....

jaclaz: now i will try another way... maybe i can do it

more info: when i installed the Windows 2000, the computer was turn off automatic. so my hardware is compatible
