1.I never use to get any shutdown messages, but now ( I reinstalled winxp) when I go to shutdown it gives me the screen saying "It's now safe to turn off your computer". When I try hit the power button on the case it just reboots (in BIOS it says that its suppose to shutdown ).

2.Also, I have Bigpond cable and the software is really being BS recently. It never connects from first go and I have to spend minutes playing around with it, clicking on connect about 10 times and waiting till it finally connects.

Any ideas?

Did you install the motherboard's chipset drivers?

OK I turned on the advanced power management feature and it's all good now!
