Same thing happends here with a machine at work and I'm begining to think there is something turned off by default that makes it so it won't tell the motherboard to power off. All the other OSs that are apart of that machine to seem to have no problem doing a power off. The machine has a swap bay so I can switch HDDs to switch between OSs promptly for beta testing and so forth. :) -Nathan M. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stephen Liu" <satimis@writeme.com> To: <psyche-list@redhat.com> Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 10:55 PM Subject: Power-Off problem > Hi All Folks, > > CPU AMD Athlon 1.4G > Motherboard 2thMax 8KHA > ATX system > > I suffered this problem since running RH7.3.
