Thanks (after some fiddling) that worked for me! That and the dos shutdown program have made my days with the libretto significantly easier. Initially the programs just put the libretto into standby. However, as suggested by follow ups to this thread, I played around with the bios and found that setting the powerup mode to hibernation made it all work. <sigh> and up until then I'd assumed that this bios setting was set as the tosh powered down so that it would 'remember' what to do, ie when hibernating set to hibernation, when powering off, set to boot etc. Oh how naive in the ways of the libretto....
