Powering down the computer
When you power down the computer, you have three options
to choose from: Turn Off Computer (or Shut down), Stand
By, and Hibernation.

Using the Turn off command

The following procedures describe how to turn off the
computer when it is running the Windows
Edition 2005 operating system.
If your computer is not connected to a domain server:
1 Click Start, Turn off computer.
Pushing the power button before shutting down the Windows
XP Media Center Edition 2005 operating system could cause
you to lose your work. Make sure the system indicator panel's
disk light and the drive-in-use light are off. If you turn off the
power while a disk is being accessed, you may lose data or
damage the disk and/or drive.
TECHNICAL NOTES: Before using any of these options to
power down your computer, save your files and make sure the
disk activity lights are off.
If you change your mind and decide to continue working after
all, wait a few seconds before turning the computer on again.
