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,

Ctrl+Esc, u, s will shut down a computer from the start menu.

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