Ok, This is going to be a very strange question. So here it goes.
We need to disable the computer from shutting down.
When the user goes to Start, Shut Down. We would like it to say it's safe to
turn off your computer.
Not sure if this can be done.
The reason, we want the kill switch to basically to turn on the machine and
pc at the same time.
Nothing in the bios has this feature. Wasn't sure if there is a registry
thing we could edit to get this to work.
Told you that is a strange question.

Thanks and Merry Christmas
Smile

Are you using Windows XP Classic mode or Windows XP mode?

Where do you see Shut Down on the STart Menu. I see on our systems on the
bottom of the STart Menu:

Log Off
Turn Off Computer

I do not see a Shutdown.
