POWER NEVER GOIN OFF

If we are going to be able to help you.

Try slowing down a bit and thinking about telling someone on the other side of the world, someone who cannot actually SEE your computer.

We need detail.

And stop typing in CAPITAL LETTERS - it looks like you are SHOUTING !!!

Most Linux Systems power down when you tell them to and they only stay on when you have a Application Running consuming Resources on that computer.

When that happens they will not turn off.

However if you mean that the Power Supply is always providing 3 ^ 5 V DC when the unit is turned off by the computer this is correct. ATX Power supplies do not turn on as such they always provide 3 & 5 V DC to produce a Ripple on one of those lines when the Power Butt ion on the front of the computer is pushed. They then start running and wait for a signal from the M'Board to continue running. If they do not get this signal they turn off again and sit in their Off Mode just supplying the 3 & 5 V DC till they get the On Command again.

If you want to turn them off completely you have to remove the Mains Power from the Unit by turning them off at the Wall Socket or the 240 V AC Switch on the back of some Power Supplies or unplug them from the mains.
