alexepascual Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 I recently had some problems with my computer (corrupted hal.dll file) and I used the win XP CD (setup) to repair the system. This procedure actually deleted the corrupted dll and I later had to expand it from the SP2 CD. (I got the CD) At some point after this, my computer stopped shutting down automatically. I goes into a screen that says: "Now it is safe to shut down your computer".As I had turned off the power management features, I thought that might be the reason. But now I have (I think) all power management back to it's original settings and the problem continues. All the hardware and software is the same as before. I tried to see if there was some place in windows to modify the shut down behavior but I didn't find anything. Any help will be appreciated. -Alex- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
