Hi Well I solved only part of the problem. I can boot up now, but it won't completely power down. Anyway, I added the following line to /etc/grub.conf apm=off_threshold=100 I have pasted a section of that file below so you can see exactly where I put it: #boot=/dev/hda default=1 timeout=10 splashimage=(hd0,1)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-14) root (hd0,1) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-14 ro root=LABEL=/ apm=off_threshold=100 initrd /initrd-2.4.18-14.img Regards Scott On Sun, 2002-12-15 at 00:11, Taylor Leese wrote: > Hello, > > I'm having the same problem as you listed on > redhat.com.
