FuzzBall Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Make sure ACPI is enable in your BIOS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjz Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alanoll Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 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.

malinduta Posted March 2, 2005 Author Share Posted March 2, 2005 Standard computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuffman Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malinduta Posted March 2, 2005 Author Share Posted March 2, 2005 It`s still not working. I dont have Power Management or ACPI tab. The tabs that i have are: power Schemes, Advanced, Hibernate, Ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malinduta Posted March 2, 2005 Author Share Posted March 2, 2005 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjz Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
