charliefox Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Hi GuysI have just upgraded a pals computer to win2k and I cant it to turn off without this infuriating message and pushing the power button. It always turned off happily under 98 well as happy as any machine using 98! I have upgraded to the latest bios and win2k has all service packs and drivers up to date. I'm sure its pretty simple can someone put me out of my misery.Chas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPerties Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 I cant really help solve this issue but I had the same problem when I ran 2000. I know it has to due with a power issue in the bios, I assume. It might point you in the right direction but hold on the rest of the crew Will solve this one for you. Sorry I could be more of assistance.Guys????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
