    Unhappy Need help - How to power-off WinXP

    I try to use "WindowControl 4.0" to shutdown my WinXP, but everytime I come to the screen of "It is safe to shutdown your windows now."

    Anyone know how to skip that screen so that my machine would powerdown completely ? Thanks in advanced.

    Step 1: Like angomeka mentioned, go into your BIOS and make sure power management is enabled.

    Step 2: Click Start, then Control Panel, and then double-click Power Options. Click on the APM tab. Make sure the "Enable Advanced Power Management Support" box is checked.
