| 97815 | 2002-11-11 08:29:00 | When re-installing Windows recently I accidentally told it I didn't want Advanced Power Management as I was setting up the installation settings. Now when I go to shut down, it does the usual shut-down procedure but instead of switching the power supply down, it simply comes up with the message "It is now safe to turn your computer off" - as it used to for the old 486 I once had. I have tried to find some way of 'adding' this feature back in. I found that APM has a yellow exclamation symbol next to it in the System information, saying that it was not working properly, not installed or needed the driver updating. I tried updating the driver but it said that the best driver was already installed. Anyone got any ideas on how to sort this short of reinstalling windows again? |
