I have 11 Gateway Profile 5.5 PC's all configured exactly the same running
Windows XP Pro. SP2. When I shut them down, they power completely off. A
couple of minutes later the PC will start up again. They have done this
since day one. I've contacted Gateway support on this but they don't have a
clue, they seem to think it's XP. Anyone else heard of or had this problem?
What can I do to resolve it? I've disabled all power management options I
can find for troubleshooting which has not helped.

Thanks.
