UNSOLVED
Turn it OFF
Hi,
I needed to install the OS Win98 because a problem with my HD. Now since I got this PC, it turns off by itself, when I like to shut it off. But now the PC the only way to turn it off is manually. What should I do for the PC to turn it off by itself?
Thank you
If I understand your post you want the computer to "Power Down" automatically after you select "shut down"? That has something to do with Advanced Power Management. I couldn't find anything specific but what I found suggested turning APM "ON" in the setup (CMOS). You might find info on doing this at the Dell site for your particular computer model and OS. Maybe a bios update might do it. Wish I had more to offer but all the posts I've checked and Microsoft's KB offered no clear solution to your problem. If I run across anything more I'll post it!
