Advanced Power Management

I have Windows 2000 Server Installed on my machine. I noticed that there is no APM option. I have to sit here and wait for my computer to shut down so I can push the button to turn it off. . . Is there a registry setting i can change to enable APM.

Is there a registry setting i can change to enable APM. Win2k Pro worked fine on this Machine.
 
Any help would be appreciated.
 
Thanks

I think that the BE6 should have ACPI support provided you've got a fairly recent BIOS version. You should try using that instead of APM if you can. Would mean re-installing Windows though. As for enabling APM I have no idea, sorry.
