Paul,

My computer won't do anything if you hit the power button. 
IBM AMD Athlon.  If the Windows locks up, which it does a 
couple times a week, I have to kill power at the power strip 
to get a re-boot.

CTRL-ALT-Delete, does not do an "orderly" shut down on any 
computer I have ever had.  It won't shut off programs 
currently running, and usually causes a fault that triggers 
windows scandisk.
