A7N8X-E - Pressing power button - won't power off
I have the A7N8X-E Deluxe, with a 2800+ Barton CPU. I have Windows 2000
installed, with all the latest patches. All drivers and BIOS are at latest revision. My problem - pressing the power button will not turn off the power from Windows 2000 or BSOD. The reset button works. The power button does turn ON the computer, so I know it's connected! The power management is basically off, in Windows and in the BIOS. But, for the 'Pressing the power button 4 sec is soft off' setting -- not sure if this matters. The problem is that I can hold down the button for 10 seconds and no response. So, if the system freezes, I have to press the reset button and shut down from the OS, or shut off the power supply manually. -Alice |

It's typically in your Power Settings section. Sam -- To mail me, please get rid of the BS first |
