Okay, so after "enabling this NT/APM Legacy Power Node" (which I do have, windows
xp pro sp2), I find that after I choose to shutdown the computer, it restarts itself?!
Now what?
I also have APM enabled, and APM manage by O.S. in the BIOS enabled, and have tried
different combinations of this with no avail!
