Millenium shutdown problem on 8KHA+

[DoobieOnline]

I did a search and didn't see anything on this, but hopefully someone will have experience with it...
I'm recently having a problem with shutting down Millenium on my 8KHA+. When I go to shut down, my screen goes blank but my computer stays on and my monitor light stays green. I have to push reset and it boots fine, and have to sit through M.E. checking for disk errors because of improper shutdown. This time when I go to shutdown it works fine. It's not a random event, either - does it every single time no matter how long the computer has been on. I had a problem with the system freezing at shutdown because of the "Windows Exit" sound taking too long but I disabled that (current problem appeared well after that fix). If anyone has seen this problem and knows of a fix, please let me know. I'm not overclocking right now and don't have the reboot issue since I replaced the bios chip. Thanks!

Is "Hibernate" on? If so, turn if off, and see if that helps.

Thanks Akuma, I'll check that when I get home tonight

I checked in Power Options and I've got everything set to never go into suspend. I printed out a Millenium Shutdown Problems help sheet from the MS website and will go through all the options there and see if anything helps. If not, I'll be back

My friend had the same problem. I think the ACPI was causing the problem. Go in to the BIOS and disable ACPI and that should solve ur problem. But U will lose the standby function. Any way try it.

Thanks Plex24. Will disabling ACPI in bios cause any freaky things to happen with Millenium and will it work without a reload of the OS?
