Well I tried the -p switch and, indeed, the system came down completely. But now it just sits there. This is after I enabled this setting in my BIOS: "PME Event Wake UP" I figured that would do the trick but evidently not. Anything else I should be looking at? How long should the system wait before coming back up? I waited only a minute. -- Peter __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
