hello..
when I try to shutdown win2k, my PC alwaysrestarts I saw i didn't have the choice to hibernate the PC is there a link between these 2 things? ...in win98 my system can hibernate & shutdown..
i have a ACPI bios and ACPI is enabled in win2k (as well as in win98 i guess).
i would be glad if one o' you guys would gimme a solution. I'm using Asus' P5A-B BAT motherboard featuring the ALi V chipset.
Is this chipset maybe the cause? my friends owns the ATX version of this board and can't shutdown either.

I don't now about your shutdownproblem, but before u can use hibernate, u have to enable it. Go to Control Panel, Power Scheme and check the hibernate box.
