More info?)
Maybe it's because my LCD monitor it too slow coming on after sync is received
but once I see any of the boot info it does not remain on screen long enough to
read.
I can enter standby just fine, PC powers off and leaves the power led blinking.
Hitting a key wakes it up ok also.
Normal shutdown also powers off everything ok.
OS is Win XP Pro with SP2
