Possible solution: one button to shut down question
bdsjake:
Do any of you Windows 98 gurus know if it would be possible to program a button to send the proper soft shutdown command?
For example, If the buttun could send CTRL-ALT-DEL, then ALT-S, that would seem to do it. I note Hagstrom encoders says it can send a string or macro of commands.
or, is there a keyboard command to open the "start" button, you could then use arrow keys and enter to shutdown.
thanks,

Check your front end for options to shut down the computer. Mamewah has the option to do this.
