need help with w2k shutdown

[chaotictech]

When I try to shutdown it tells me i can power down my pc now it just started doing this. i have an atx system so it should power down on its own

Check your BIOS to make sure that you have Power Management enabled. If disabled, Win2k doesn't load the ACPI kernel and this fuctionality will not work...

Haha, I also got this problem recently starting like a week ago. But I think it started after I flashed my bios, not sure. Going to follow this fella's advice though
