Turning Off Your Computer
When you're finished using your computer, turn it off with one of the following ways:

box.
•
With a power button (Windows XP Professional)
Before using this step, confirm that Shut down is selected in When I press the
power button on my computer in Advanced tab of Power Options Properties dialog
box.
•
From the Start menu (Windows 2000)
1.
From the Start menu, select Shut Down....
2.
In the Shut Down Windows dialog box, select Shut down from the pull down
menu, and click OK.
•
From the start menu (Windows XP Professional)

Click start – Turn Off Computer.

• Do not turn off or reset the computer while the hard disk indicator or
the indicator on the optional external floppy disk drive unit or the
external CD-ROM drive unit is lit. Doing so may damage or even wipe
out the data.
• Before turning it back on, wait at least ten seconds after turning off the
computer. Turning the power off and on in rapid succession can
damage the computer's electrical circuitry.
