I'm sure this has been here before but, I just setup an older NEC computer and after all the setup, updates, and software, I discovered that the computer would not turn off due to it being setup as a standard PC in the hardware manager. I rechecked the BIOS to make sure ACPI was enabled and it was. I am pretty sure I cannot go back to ACPI or Uniprocessor without wrecking the entire install. Has a way been discovered?
If not how can I ensure that this does not happen again after I format and install?
I have tried to hit F5 and it gives me no other options other than Standard PC or other.
I have also tried to select another HAL in device manager and Standard pc is all that is available.
Any ideas
