Re: XP Pro Power Management works, but XPe does not.

Interesting. When the restart or shutdown hangs up, you can still get in
with the kernel debugger and see stuff. And the '.reboot' command reboots
the system. The kernel debugger must reboot the machine in a different way.
My guess is that a device driver is not shutting down correctly. I'm
chasing that idea now.
