745 win 2000 problem no shut down from windows

Hello every one;
I have a 745 Mboard with ,256 MB DDR, Maxtor 60 Gig 7200, MSI GF4 MX 440 VGA, Sweex Lan card, AMD 2 Ghz CPU, Lite on CDRW and Samsung DVD.
The pc boots normally when i restart and hold the power switch its shutting down. But when i try to shut down from Win2000 Pro it shuts down untill black screen the power button does not function and the fan and power light remain on. On the back of the casing is a switch when i switch off the pc is off, when i switch back on the pc boots again.
Is there somone who had the same problems? And knows how to solve this one.

In device manager double-click on computer and that brings up the description, if it says acpi computer then thats ok but if it says standard pc it won't shut down properly

  • Brand new K8T NEO-V board restarts instead of shutting down from Windows

    Tonight I installed the brand new board from MSI. It is a replacement for a defective one. When I click on shut down in Windows XP Pro, it shuts down and then immediately powers back up.
    ALL the parts are the same as before, the only change is the replacement motherboard. The new one is the exact same model as the old one, so nothing has changed. The old one powered off fine, it's problem was that the USB ports stopped working. I changed nothing in Windows either. I am using the defaults on the BIOS. Made sure to set it to defaults to try to fix this problem.
    I also unhooked the reset and power buttons to see if perhaps they were defective. Also pulled out all the cards except the video. None of those things made any difference. It was a long-shot, but I tried them anyway.
    Since setting the BIOS to default settings didn't help, I went into the power management section of BIOS and turned all the wake up features to disable. That also made no difference.
    When I searched for this problem on the forum, I found two references about a year ago. They seem to have the exact same problem so I tried to do what the suggestions for those were. That made no difference. There was a reference to APC or something like that in Windows control panel. I am not familiar with whatever it said and I could not find it in the control panel. It should be set to power down when I tell it to though. I am not aware of any setting in Windows that would make it not power down and stay off.
    It can not possibly be the other parts because they all worked fine with the other motherboard, but here is the list anyway. The power supply is an Antec 500 watt, AMD 300+ CPU, 2 sticks of 1GB RAM, Seagate 300GB PATA hard drive, ATI APG video card.
    Any ideas?

    bretware and Hans, thank you for the replys. The BIOS was already set to power off after a power failure so I did not need to change it. I tried booting into safe mode and shutting off; same results. The network adapter is a VIA chipset, rather than the Realtek; the wakeup setting is unchecked and grayed out because I unchecked the option to power the adapter off when it is not used; that also made no difference.
    I will now tear the machine apart, yet again, and breadboard it on the bench with a different power supply. I sent an urgent e-mail to MSI, hopefully they will respond in the next couple of hours.

  • How to auto boot after shutting down bootcamp Windows?

    I have an instructional lab of 30 20" imacs that are running dual-boot, 10.5 & XP SP3. They have bootpicker installed to simplify the selection of which OS to boot to and auto-select Windows at 60 sec. (This is for new computer users and English as a second language users that are not familiar with the dual-boot setups.)
    In both OS's we run deepfreeze to protect the configurations from change. I have set the Energy Saver settings in the Mac OS to start or wake at 7am weekdays. Deepfreeze for Windows is set to shut off the Macs at 10PM. This is also set by Deepfreeze in the Mac OS but since they primarily run Windows in this classroom the Mac's are shut down from the Windows side.
    After making the auto start setting and shutting them down from Windows once they will no longer auto start the next day or ever again after that. I have tried using pmset to remedy this and have tossed the plist for the settings numerous times. Same thing every time. One auto boot and then none after. I would use a script from ARD to wake them but they are not in the same subnet as my ARD setup and my network group will not configure our switching to allow for it.
    Does anyone know how to make the Macs boot consistently, automatically, every day I wish them to boot after being shut down from Windows by Deepfreeze.

  • I have been shut down from my previous email address as I left my company's email system, I am now on gmail and have changed my Apple Id and password successfully unfortunately I dont understand what I need to do to change my ICloud, IFace etc...ID?

    I have bene shut down from my previous Apple email ID as i left my company email' server. I have move to gmail and have successfully reset my Apple ID accordingly. My iCloud, IFace etc...unfortunately pop up with the previous email address and I dont remember the password, so I cant get in and change it to gmail! Anyone out there knows what to do, i would be very grateful, thanks. M

    First thing to try is just to sign out on all your devices. If you can do that you can just sign in with the new ID. However if you've set up 'Find My iPhone' you won't be able to.
    In that event go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com . Click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. If you have any problems with that try this form: https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

    unable to bootup after Yosemite install. have to keep shutting down from rear button. it does come on after a few times but then hangs at user login again. If you get in it is great. Seems faster than Mavericks but there is some sort of issue, bootup /login.

    Knock on wood, this seems to have been my problem as well.  I stumbled on this thread after dealing with this ridiculously-long boot times for the past several weeks.
    I just reinstalled McAfee Antivirus and my Macbook Air booted up in less than 1 minute.  No more hanging on the boot-up progress bar.  No more hanging after I click on my user's avatar on the log-in screen.  Bootup would often take 5+ minutes and sometimes never complete.
    This has been SUPREMELY frustrating.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING YOUR RESPONSE!!!

    Hi,
    Troubleshooting a start up script can be difficult. There are some third party programs that also keep logs of start up programs, however for Firefox this may be different.
    Is Firefox a startup program? [http://www.winxptutor.com/msinfo32.htm]
    Its also possible to check the Web developer tools for any scripts in a page: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Debugger]
    In the control panel there is also Administrative tools to view event logs, but this may be something a local technician can walk you through.

  • Shutting down from a console you're not using.

    As described by many users of fglrx or r128 on old cards... when shutting down from inside X, there is a very good chance that the computer will freeze before it finishes shutting down.
    Nothing I can do saves that and from others I hear the only way to complete the shutdown is to ssh into the machine and issue that command.
    This led me to believe that if the shutdown command comes from an outside source it will finish whether or not the console running X has frozen.  I tried this script:
    #!/bin/bash
    rm /home/dummy
    until [ 6 -eq 9 ]; do
    if [ -e /home/dummy ]; then
    poweroff
    else
    sleep 5
    fi
    done
    And used touch /home/dummy to turn off the computer.  The script runs in console 2 so the poweroff command came from console 2 but i was running X in console 1.  Nevertheless I just experienced another lockup and the computer would not shut down.
    Any idea why?  When someone ssh's into the machine and types "poweroff" the actual command that turns off this computer is coming from sshd correct?  And the reason it works is because sshd does not run in the same console as X, it starts up as a daemon before you even login to a console at all.  Does that mean if I somehow make the above script into a daemon and start it before logging in, touch /home/dummy will shutdown successfully all the time?
    I need some way of shutting down (and using ssh all the time from another machine isnt practical) and I'm really confused as to why sshd can shutdown when console 1 is frozen but console 2 cannot shutdown when console 1 is frozen.  The only way to avoid the freeze would be to turn off 3D acceleration and from everything I've read this means starting X without 3D.  I'd love to know if there's a way to turn off 3D in the middle of an X session.
    Does anyone have solutions?  Or am I stuck waiting until I have a server which automatically shuts down my laptop over ssh, when the laptop tells the server it wants to shut down?

    Hopefully this will become a non-issue soon as kernel 2.6.23 makes the chance of freezing on shutdown seem like only 1%.

    with that age of laptop we immediately suspect an issue with dust clogging the exhaust fan or the thermal compound between the heatsink and fan breaking down and needing to be replaced. The laptop needs to be opened and inspected in other words.

  • Illustrator CS2 won't shut down in Windows XP

    Hi,
    For some reason I'm experiencing trouble getting Adobe Illustrator CS2 to shut down in Windows XP. Everything in the program works smoothly, but when it comes time to close my file and exit the program it just hangs. I can't access the Illustrator drop down menus or taskbar at the bottom of my screen and need to do an 'end task' (force quit) using the task manager.
    Does anyone have any ideas for how I can fix this problem?
    Thanks for your time,
    Bentley

    I've been having the same problem just in the last few days (WIN XP SP2, CS2, plenty of drive space, etc.)
    Thought it was my update to Norton 360. Saw another post that seemed to eliminate Norton as culprit.
    Stumbled across this fix tonight. Seems to be working each time:
    1) Close all AI files
    2) Copy some small text (from any program it seems -- I used email text and then tried the AI HELP>System info>Copy to clipboard)
    3) Exit AI via any option -- AI should close immediately
    The copy to clipboard seems to release something AI can't dump on exit.
    Interesting to see if others get same repeated results.
