Shutdown Confirmation..
I really am not sure what to call it, but for some reason XP Pro has started to display the 'safe shutdown' screen can i disable it?

found this on www.tweakxp.com
Open Device Manager, then to View then Show Hidden Devices, then you look on the list for NT Apm/Legacy Support. Under that is NT Apm/Legacy Interface Node. I found that this driver was disabled. Why, I'm not too sure, but I enabled it and now when I shut down windows, my computer turns off automatically. I went into power management and the APM was also activated/enabled....It must do this when you enable the driver. |

Thank you very much for that piece of info. My new build (from scrap parts, 800 MHz Pentium III) was doing the same thing.
Following your instructions it is now functioning properly! -Kev
