| XP on older computer I recently installed Windows XP on a slightly older computer and when I turn the computer off, I get the message "It is now safe to turn off your computer" and I have to turn it off manually like the Windows 95. Is there a cure for that? Thanks. |

Thanks. If this is an ATX system, go into the CMOS settings and make sure that ACPI is enabled. There is no workaround if this is an AT system. -BC |
