Climbermonkey Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 So i have a random question.....being that most of us here have built our own pc's... how do you turn it off? Do you.... A) Start > Shutdown > Turn Off ...and leave? or B) Start > Shutdown > Turn Off > Then flick the switch in back that turns off your PSU to the pc? im bored..lol, inquiring minds want to know! lol myself, i find doing choice B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuoficr Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 i actually have it set to shutdown when the power button is hit, so i push a button on my keyboard and walk away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMoose Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 i bypass the start - shut down routine and go straight to the psu switch.....j/k Who shuts their machine down? I leave mine up 24/7...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICON57 Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 same here mostly on 24/7 but when i do shut down, i do it the Start > Shutdown > Turn Off ...and leave method...no hitting rocker switch on psu. being as i live in the lightning capitol of the world...florida...if i am away from home for extended time, i will unplug from the back of psu.

red930 Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Very rarely do I shut any of my machine(s) off unless it is to test new hardware, tweak, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I don't believe in an off switch. It's like the energizer battery baby, it keeps going, going, and going..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nehil Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I only say "Start", "Turn off computer" and then "Shutdown". Using a voicerecognition software is so damn cool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
