hello folks. The last couple of times I have shut down the computer ( Via chipset) it has not powered off but displays a screen of vertical black and orange lines - exactly the colours displayed on the 'it is safe to turn your computer off' screen found on older computers. I then have to turn it off manually. As this is a computer I am setting up for someone else to use, I feel it must be as right as I can get it. Can you give me some ideas on how to deal with it please?

I shut down and rebooted and the problem did not come back. I rebooted again, tried the dial-up again and connected, then came out of that and shut down and it was still ok. I wondered if ranaapp might have something to do with it - but I do not know enough about these things.
Anyway, it has not come back.
thank you for your help wolluf
ps we have two of them ( wollufs) German Shepherds really, great hairy beasties
