Well here it is........I have this guy's comp, and he had alot of bad sectors on his Hard drive........so I brought a Western Digital( 30 gig) and replaced his old Hard drive..........however the guy wanted all his infor and programs back on his HD.........so made a copy of his HD on my HD

Then I installed his HD and partitation it ( one extended and one logical drive) then put back all his old stuff on his comp.

Now here is the problem
WHen I click the shut down button..........the monitor shuts off
( before it shuts down the monitor says "It is now save to turn off your comp" keep in mind this is an board) but the comp seems to keep on running.

Here's the specs
1 gig chip
64 mb sdram 133mhz
the 98 OS

on board sound
on board graphics

I reset the bios
I can't find bios updates on the net.
I tried alot of stuff.........can someone help me out?

Oh yeah the next soln is to wipe the drive and reinstall windows and not copy the guy's window's directory onto the new HD
