When Shut down is selected, pressing the main power button once results in an
automatic system shut down. All applications are closed automatically and the unit
powers off.

When Do nothing is selected, pressing the power button once has no effect on the
operation of the computer.
In order to power off, return to the Power menu and reset the Power Button field to

Even if Do nothing is selected, it is always possible to shut down the computer by
clicking Shut Down from the Windows Start menu.
