Well, Spots, since you asked.....
How do I get my computer to power down by itself after doing Shutdown? Asus P2B - worked fine under Win98, but with NT, hmmmm.

(I admit to playing with the registry a bit - but only two settings)



You can't. NT doesn't have any APM. You get a custom screen savers that will power down your monitor though.

This isn't much of a problem for me as I never turn the computer off.

Also, why can't I get IExplorer to give me smaller fonts (smaller than 'smallest' in View/Fonts). They were smaller in Win98

Can't help here...

Sean

Beats me. A motherboard thing, surely. Have you checked
the MB manual? BIOS settings?

IE is not me, but Navigator allows you to set the face and
size of the HTML normal fonts (fixed and variable pitch),
which provides a starting point for increase/decrease font
size operations. IE may have a similar option.
