PC POWER DOWN ISSUES

POWER DOWN ISSUES

“Power down issues” is quite distinctive from “shutdown issues.”  The computer may not power down correctly. This is a different problem, and I encourage people reporting these issues to make a clear distinction in their labeling.

When Windows won’t power down automatically, the APM/NT Legacy Power Node may not be enabled. To enable this, right-click on the My Computer icon, click Properties | Hardware | Device Manager | View. Check the box labeled “Show Hidden Devices.” If it’s available on your computer, there will be a red X on the APM/NT Legacy Node. Try enabling it and see if this resolves the power down problem. However, other factors can sometimes interfere with correct power down functioning. In that case, consider the following steps:

• If you change the default power settings in the BIOS, it can lead to a power down problem. Restoring all BIOS power settings to default will likely fix it. 
• Sometimes, not all appropriate Registry settings are made when you enable all the right power management settings in Windows.  
• Restore Power Option Settings to its default.
• Try to replace you SMPS, the Power Supply in a desktop PC.
