Serial Number Location Turning Off Your Computer Each computer has a unique serial number, which is located on the corner of the computer access panel and also on the rear panel of the computer. You may need to have this number available if contacting Compaq customer service. To exit Windows and automatically turn off the computer, click Start Æ Shut Down. In Windows NT Workstation, the power button always functions as an on/off switch. In Windows, however, pressing the power button does not turn off power altogether, but instead causes the computer to enter a low-power standby. This allows you to quickly power down without closing applications and to quickly return to the same operational state without any data loss. To reconfigure the power button to work as an on/off switch instead, run Computer Setup. (See the Software Reference Guide for instructions.) Guide to Features & Upgrades 1-9
