| | Vista shutdown options Hi, When i hit the Windows button and choose Shutdown, I'm always presented with the "Sleep" option. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to change this default to "Shut Down" and if so, how to do it? |

By default, Windows puts your computer to sleep. However, you can change what happens when you click the Power button. To change what happens when you click the Power button 1.. Click to open Power Options. 2.. On the Select a power plan page, click Change plan settings under the selected plan. 3.. On the Change settings for the plan page, click Change advanced power settings. 4.. On the Advanced settings tab, expand Power buttons and lid, expand Start menu power button, click On battery or Plugged in (or both), click the arrow, and then click Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut Down. 5.. Click OK, and then click Save changes. H Brown |
