[Justin]

On Vista Home 64 bit, how can I set the shut down prompt to default to
shut down, and not sleep?

I don't have a Hardware & Sound option in CP.

Since you are in Classic View, skip Hardware and Sound and go straight
to Power Options.

OK, I'm in there, and I see the options, but nothing to do with the shut
down menu.

Hi justin, Click Power Options Icon > Change plan settings > Change
advanced power settings > Change settings that are currently
unavailable. Click + for Power buttons and lid > + for Start menu power
button > Setting, then click click on the drop down arrow. Click what
you want the Start menu power button to do. Click OK. See the tutorial
for screenshots and more info.
