So on my PC I have an option to shutdown pc with the push of the power button, so it should come to no ones surprise when I press the button it will shutdown but when I do so it shuts down instantly, not in a good way. Instead of taking its time to log off and make sure everything shuts down properly it just flat outs shutdowns, I dont want this to happen and sometimes I will require to turn off such PC with the button. What is the problem with this? I cant imagine this being what they meant when it says SHUTDOWN.


Thank you in advance for any help!

Do you perhaps know where this would be in a Gigabyte Mobo BIOS? I have tried but to no avail, maybe I was not looking in the right place, by the may its a GA-78LMT-USB3 Motherboard by the way.

It was set at Power off. I changed it to sleep but would really want power off which it was set as previously.
