Alex, No, you haven't misunderstood anything. It's not about another version of Windows. Reread my message. I said that the dialogue that comes up when you press U for Shut down on the Start Menu actually *does* tell you (with Jaws's help, of course) that you must press the alt key for these buttons. It's simply that, if you try it without the Alt key, the controls work anyway. See? Just an oddity. Not your memory. ren't ----- Original Message ----- From: Alex Stone To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, December 05, 2006 7:23 AM Subject: RE: control, alt, delete Yardbird, Yeah I've just discovered that. I have a feeling that you had to use the alt key in Windows NT, which I used to use at work. I guess I just got into the habit of doing it. Cheers.

At least not on my system, which is pretty standard.

Is there another simple way I can reboot, once jaws goes down, with windows XP?
