Post #166,530 by Ashton 7/28/04 8:51:27 PM Reply	I guess Doze could 'mistake' the two and saw the DUN/'shell' as needing service, which it provided, at least part of it.. The real oddity to me seems - that the HD wound down but.. not during a real shutdown. That this was an 'incomplete' shutdown is implied by the fact that the Power button did not immediately restart. See what I mean? Even a BSOD doesn't (usually) initiate seppuku :(
