Powering OFF the Notebook PC

In Windows XP, the Notebook PC can be powered OFF by using Start | Shut Down... | Turn off (or
Shut down). For operating systems without proper power management (DOS, Windows NT), you
must power OFF the Notebook PC by holding the power switch for 2 seconds (as opposed to 1 second
to power ON) after closing applications and exiting operating systems. Holding the power switch for 2
seconds is necessary in order to prevent accidental power-OFFs.
The screens are different depending on your security settings.

shutdown your Notebook PC:
