Newbie Q about Shutdown problem...

[Jeffrey A. McCright]

I believe this is similar to a problem that my Brother-in-Law had. I think he 
installed apmd and that somehow fixed the problem. He may have also messed 
around in CMOS with the Advanced Power Management and ACPI settings. I hope 
this helps.

Thanks,

Jeffrey A. McCright
