Getting Started
If Windows 2000 is installed and it is placed in ACPI mode, or your operating system
supports ACPI, use the following procedure to perform a normal shutdown:
1
Open the Control Panel and choose the Power Management option.
2
Select Shutdown. The system will automatically shutdown and turn off.
CAUTION: Using the power switch to shutdown an ACPI-compliant system causes
any running application software to abort before completing the normal termination
process. This could result in data loss or damage any running applications.
The buzzer should sound a continuous tone about 4 seconds after you press the power
button. Releasing the power button before the buzzer sounds terminates the power-down
operation.
Performing an abnormal system shutdown
If an error occurs during system shutdown, the shutdown routine can be stopped by
performing an abnormal system shutdown. Initiating an abnormal system shutdown
causes all unsaved data in open files to be lost.
To initiate an abnormal system shutdown, press the reset button and power button
simultaneously.
