Automatic shutdown

When I installed XP over Win98, and I shut down the machine, the CPU turned itself off automatically.

Over the weekend, I formatted the HDD and did a clean install of XP. Now when I shut down the machine, I get the "OK to turn me off now" screen, but no automatic shut off. A

Any way to turn that feature back on?

Thanks!

Go to your control panel and to power management and under the advanced button check shutdown computer when I hit the power button. If that does not work or is not availiable make sure the advance power option is enabled in your BIOS, cya, should work fine.
