I have version 5.2 RC#1 installed.

I have not been able to get the shutdown command to power down my computer. I used the following command:

shutdown -p now

It simple gets to a point where it says press any key to restart. I never had any problem doing a power off shutdown using Windows XP. Can any one give me any assistance?

Thanks!
