Friends Lu recently encountered a problem when installing the Chinese version of Windows XP, he installed Windows XP system is very smooth, the installation can not shut down properly. What should I do if this happens? Of course, I should take it.
My friend's computer configuration is: K6-2 266MHz @300MHz, MVP3 (AT board type) motherboard, 160 MB SDRAM (PC100), FUJITSU 10G hard disk, CMI-8330 ISA interface sound card, graphics card is SIS6326, AT power supply.
over to see the original operation after the shutdown, not display "now safe to shut down" (if it is ATX motherboard ATX power supply plus, of course, is the automatic shutdown), but the re-start, only manually Forced shutdown.
situation actually is not normal shutdown in the win
dows98SE is a very common situation. Common reasons are:
1. for the operating system and the motherboard ACPI or APM support is not perfect. Various hardware other than
2. motherboard supports ACPI or not perfect for APM. BUG
3. hardware drivers.
4. BiOS board needs to be improved.
5. system for rapid shutdown support is not good enough (in terms of Windows98 only).
6 Before shutting down, there are some programs in the resident memory that exit and conflict with the shutdown process of the system.
7 virus.
8 failure disk subsystem, such as IDE driver and system compatibility is not good enough.
course there are many other reasons, I can not attempting to repeat.
Because the friend is a newly installed operating system, in addition to the sound card driver (other hardware is driven by the operating system), various applications have not been installed. Therefore, the author focused on the problem of insufficient support for power management in the motherboard and operating system. After grasping the principles from easy to difficult, first of all into the motherboard's CMOS settings interface, power management in the PM control by APM shut down, boot into the system, and then shut down the computer still restart.
Restart
WindowsXP
, enter the control panel power management, click the “Hibernate” menu, then enable hibernation is unchecked, select “Enable hibernation”, but still can not Effective.
Re-enter the power options in the control panel, click on the "Advanced Power Management" sub-page, the system shows: This machine supports Advanced Power Management (APM), using APM can reduce the system's power loss. At this time, "Enable Advanced Power Management Support" is selected. Without hesitation, I will remove the "Enable Advanced Power Management Support". It will cost more power, and it will not shut down properly. The next step is of course shutdown, OK, "There can be safe shutdown now" a few words came out, haha, quite kind.
This example is due to the system's lack of advanced power management support, or can be eliminated by upgrading the BIOS, but this motherboard is a long time, may not find updated BiOS, so did not try, right ATX motherboards, it is recommended to still enable advanced power management, otherwise there may be trouble.
