Aptiva - Shut Down in Windows 98

Applicable to: World-Wide

SYMPTOM:
If your computer is configured to automatically power off when you shut down Windows 98, the "It's now safe to turn off
your computer" message may be displayed briefly on your screen before your computer powers off.

CAUSE
This behavior is a result of the new Fast Shutdown functionality in Windows 98. When you shut down Windows 98 on a
computer that supports Advanced Power Management (APM), the Windows 98 shutdown screen (Logo.sys) is displayed at the same time APM procedures are being processed.

STATUS
This behavior is by design and does not result in loss of functionality.
