I just did an upgrade from Win 98 to XP Pro for a friends computer. When I go through the shutdown process in XP Pro I get the "Its OK to shut your computer off now" prompt. In other words I have to manually turn the computer off. How do I get it to turn off in the XP Pro shut down process? If it matters this is a Via board with an AMD 800Mhz Duron. Sorry don't know the make of the board at this moment but could find out when I get home.
