Maybe a difference between turning off and rebooting? If he's running windows, I'm pretty sure it's impossible for XP to run that long without a reboot. After a while it would just give up. :lol:

I've rebooted hundreds of times, I thought the question was regarding actually powering down the system :)

For what it's worth, it's running OS X most of the time.
