Hi again people :-D


in Windows XP in "power setting" we was able to define what do if we press
the power button

in Vista also but it missing one option "Ask me what to do" Why she there no
more ?

because it really usefull !! somes times i need to reboot somes times i
whant to shutdown or sleep !

and is really really more faster to pass trough the power button (on
keyboard) than do it by the Long mouse way of vista (Start-> [little arrow
expended menu] -> restart)

i hope the simple option will be back...




for me a new version of something it the same thing but with MORE options,
features etc.. and no less feature (or may be the buggy feature)
 
Click Start > Control Panel > (set to "Classic View") > click Power Options
click Choose when to turn off display > click the "Change advanced power
settings" link, here you will get all the advanced functions that were
available in XP.

How do the changes to hibernation affect whether MS offer a user prompt with
a selection of options when the user physically hits the power button?
 
+ 1point to "Sean McLeod" :-)

nothing to add ;-) (just expect a answer of him question, and maybe a
change of that feature)
