Hi
Since i don't have time to see if there's a similar problem in other posts (if so i apologise) but here's the deal:
My girfriends got a BX board, 192mb ram, p3 450, and it's running windows 2k, the problem is that when i install servica pack 2 whenever i want to shutdown the pc it doesn't shutdown, instead appears a screen saying "you can shutdown the pc now" or smtg like that remembering the old win 95 8)
 
Is there a fix making the pc able to shutdown all for himself?! (without having to press the power button, yeah.. i'm lazy )
I remember seeing something like that, but i don't remember where .
 
Hope you guys can help me.

Under the Power Options, go to APM and turn it on. You may want to see if there is a more recent BIOS version for the motherboard, as well.
