I recently reformatted my computer and when I power down my computer will not shut down. I have to press the power button. I think I have to go into my bios. But, I am not sure what to do.
Any help please?

Did your computer shut down correctly before you reformatted it? Were you using Win2k? If you were using 98, you may need to flash the bios to bring it to the latest version before Win2k will work properly on shutdown.
