All buttons or certain buttons or one button in particular?

Have you tried going into the Control Panel> Power applet> Advanced tab and
specifying what the machine is to do in response to Power buttons events?

I suspect you're talking of a sleep button maybe, and that it's not sleeping
but shutting down. If so there's an option in there to enable the sleep
function, or disable it if you require.

Replace the keyboard with one that doesn't have that "feature"

I hope that someone here helps me because in the standard help groups no one
did.
In my keyboard there most right button press shuts down the PC. This must be
eliminated. I'd like to install some software that modifies that behavior.

Thanks in advance

I had a keyboard with various power/sleep keys on it. To disable them, I
simply pulled them off!
