I have similar problem. My case is ATX and it shuted down automatically when I had w98, but with w2k it does not shut down completely.Any idea?

Be sure that the function is supported at the BIOS. Not sure what your sys calls it, but mine just took immediately, after installing 98.

goto control panel\power option\APM:
make sure "Advanced power Management" is check. If this option is not available,Upgade the BIOS.
