23661 2001-11-05 04:37:00 I've used Win98 up until just recently, and when I shut down the PC it would proceed to automatically turn itself off. Now with XP it says its shutting down, but enters a kind of hibernation state, everything is shut down, but the PC is still running. To turn it off I have to hold the switch in till it goes off, release it (which restarts the comp) hold it in again till it goes off and then release it to turn off. Anyone know whats going on? None of the bios settings have been changed since upgrade, nor have power control features... Guest (0)

23663 2001-11-06 00:29:00 Do you have Ezy CD Creator 5 installed? - there is a known incompatibility between it and Windows XP that results in a misbehaving shutdown. Go to roxio.com for the patch to fix the problem. Guest (0)

Thank you very much
