hang up

Hi,

If your system uses Advanced Power Management, this
problem is usually caused by APM systems on which XP is
installed because APM (Advanced Power Management) is not
enabled by default in XP.

Right click a blank space on your desktop, select
properties, go to the Screen Saver tab and click the Power
button under Monitor power. Go to the APM tab and
select "Enable Advanced Power Management support."

If you see no such tab, go to Start and right click My
Computer, select Properties, go to the Hardware tab and
click the Device Manager button under Device Manager.

In device manager, select the View menu, and turn on show
hidden devices.
In the device manager window, you will now see an entry
for NT Apm/Legacy Support (If you see no such entry, skip
to the bottom of this message and try the suggested link),
expand it, and bring up the properties for the node.
In the device usage drop down list, select Use this device
(enable)
Hit the OK button and then close the device manger.
You may need to reboot, but now it should shut your
computer completely off on shutdown.

If none of the above applies, or helps, try the following
