You should get some kind of Power Control Strip and plug monitor and any external devices you have ie printer, scanner, etc. That way when you shutdown (Start/ShutDown) after the CPU turns off you can then turn the power strip off...

but then you would be draining your BIOS CMOS battery, and once the battery is dead you have to reconfigure your entire BIOS.
