February 25, 200521 yr After I made my unattended Cd with nlite, when I shutdown the computer it sais "It is now safe to turn off your computer" and I dont know why. I do have a ATX. Please help me.
February 26, 200521 yr That should work if it doesn't turn it on in your power options in the control pnael. It would be under apm. Do you have a good bios version?
February 26, 200521 yr Open regedit.exeBrowse to this key-[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]Make sure the following value is set to 1"PowerdownAfterShutdown"="1"
February 27, 200521 yr Man...... If I'd have known this 5 years ago!Did Win 98 have that key in the reg also?
February 27, 200521 yr Man...... If I'd have known this 5 years ago!Did Win 98 have that key in the reg also?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>The powerdown automatically only works for ATX systems, and even then it should be automatically enabled.
March 2, 200521 yr Author It still doesen`t work . Pls tell me what else can i try. I dont like this at all.
March 2, 200521 yr Right Click the desktop, click the Screensavers tab, then the Power Options button at the bottom. Once in Power Options, click the Power Management or ACPI tab, (I can't remember what it's called), then check the "Enable Power Management on this PC" box. Click OK, then shut down. You won't have to manually power off anymore. Hope this helps,Stuff
March 2, 200521 yr Author It`s still not working. I dont have Power Management or ACPI tab. The tabs that i have are: power Schemes, Advanced, Hibernate, Ups.
March 2, 200521 yr Author This whole thing is happening since i made the unattended cd with nlite. I checked for erase a lot of drivers. It is possible this to be the cause? If yes, pls tell me what not to check for erase. THX.
March 3, 200521 yr This procedure might work but, it also might make you fail to boot. If you go back into device manager go and upgrade the driver of standard computer. When doing the update go to the selection list and do acpi. You will need the cabs directory or the windows cd for this. Good luck. Backup 1st.
