re: Question about 'When I choose ''Shut Down'' from the Start Menu, my computer will not shut down' Wednesday, January 26, 2005 at 3:09 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jo (2 messages posted) This option CAN be found on all machines running W2K and XP. To clarify: Click on My Computer, then click on System, then click the Hardware Tab, then on Device Manager. When DM opens, click on View, then on Show Hidden Devices. You will then see NT ATM legacy support. It will have a red x overlaid on it. To enable this device, right mouse click it, and then click on enable. You will now find that rather than responding with "it is now safe to turn off your computer" your pc will close itself down quite happily.
