System shutdown options
I have Sp2 installed (had problems initially now ironed out) but one curious
thing happens when I go to shutdown the system. All three option buttons are displayed and accessible (i.e. STANDBY, TURNOFF and RESTART). Without changing anything (no system restores for example) in my configuration, days or weeks later when I go to shutdown the STANDBY option is displayed but inaccessible to select. This also seems to coincide with a failure of my video driver to load (nVidia TNT RIVA) and Sys. Mgr shows the display adapter as not working. Any thoughts or advice? -- O++++++++++++&++++++++++++O |

displayed and accessible again and SYs.Mgr says my video adapter is working again!!
