My PC with XP Home will not shut down from the Start Button, Turn Off
Computer, Turn Off. Nothing Happens. I can restart or Stand By without
problems. How can I restore this feature? Thanks

Display Properties / Screensaver tab / Click on Power Button then Advanced
tab - change When I press the power button on my computer to Shut Down.

Reread his post. Nothing to do with power button.

Verify nothing is running in the background. Unfortunately this could be a
power supply failure.
