Its not really bad when the window asks you to either shutdown or restart anyways I don't know if you can remove that.

see if this thread helps any...
http://forum.pcmech.com/showthread.p...hutdown+screen There is a way to remove it, the screen is just a reminant of the old AT days, when the switch was directly attaced to the PSU, and not the moterboard, which is the case in the new atx systems HTH |

It's ACPI. It must be enabled (in BIOS) so that Windows can turn the PC automatically off.
Also in device manager under computer it needs to be ACPI-PC. RJ

Make sure power management by APM is enabled in the bios, open power options in control panel, look for the APM tab, and enable it.
