AT motherboard support ACPI?
I haven't known that actually, but as far as I know AT motherboard can't switch off itself because of its power supply.

OP
that true my computer cannot switch off automatically but ACPI really is supported,
so my computer can hibernate.
In win9x, i could shutdown my computer so i got the message: it's no safe to turn of your computer. In win2k that's impossible.
