Automatic Shutdown

[StickyBit]

I'm unable to automatically shutdown and turn off my computer from the OS (Windows 2000 server). How does this function work? Is it something to do with the BIOS? I get the follwoing message after I attempt to shutdown the system:

"It is safe to shutdown your system now"

Please Help,

Thanks Stickybit.

Power down after shutdown can be set in the registry.

H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/software/microsoft/windowsNT/currentversion/winlogon/powerdownaftershutdown

set it to 0.
