Hello there!

I'd just like to ask some help regarding my rig, the
stand by mode in the turn off computer window is
disabled, so my PC doesn't completely shuts down, there
is a message on the screen that says "It is now safe to
shut down your computer", it means for me that my ATX
power source doesn't work, my PC doesn't shuts down
automatically. Thanks foa any help you can give. More
power.
 
Hi Alvin,

There are actually two different problems going on here. First is the
shutdown problem, that may be because you need to activate APM in the
control panel/power options. It's very common. The second issue with the
lack of a standby function is usually device driver related. See if this
helps:
