SHUTTING OFF ITSELF
My computer has been shutting down by itself. The light on
the modem still blinks like it is on, so I then have to manually shut it off. It usually does this while I'm on it. But sometimes even if I leave it on over night, I wake up and it is off. PLEASE help. Thanks

That looks as if something is sending it into standby - or your monitor is
switching itself off Go to the Display Settings, and check out the power management options -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "Theresa" wrote in message ...

SHUTTING OFF ITSELF
It's not the monitor it's the modem. It completely shuts
down but the light is still on and I can't turn the computer back on until I manually turn it off (hold the power button in). All of my power management options say "never". Thanks for your help though. Any other thoughts? Please let me know. -----Original Message----- That looks as if something is sending it into standby - or your monitor is switching itself off Go to the Display Settings, and check out the power management options -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "Theresa" wrote in message ...
