how do you turn off your computer?

[Pastore]

window button > up arrow > enter > right arrow > enter

 

[Blayze]

shut down

 

[Mrvile]

Shut down on my gaming comp.

HP never goes down. Reboot once every two weeks maybe but never turned off.

 

[RossMAN]

Start --> Turn Off Computer --> Turn Off

I suspect putting one of my PC's into hibernate (always) for the past two years had something to do with the data/hard drive corruption I just dealt with.

press button on the front of the computer.

i never shut off the computer unless i am gonna be away overnight.

i do not have a screen saver either. But I turn off the monitor every time get up from the computer.

 

[jds2006]

I never shut it off because I'm too lazy to type in my password after everytime I restart.

 

[TipsyMcStagger]

there's a power button?

actually, that involves more work because you have to unplug it, then bring it to the bathtub, then plug it in, fill the tub with water and then electrocute yoursefl. sounds like a plan.

FYI - Hitting the power button on an XP machine does the exact same thing, without the steps.

FYI hitting the power button actually takes more effort and bending.

Your turn.

Roll it down the stairs.

I'd hibernate if I could, but this damn PCI vid card prevents that

 

[MazerRackham]

My boot time is ~40 seconds, so I just shut down.
