My spec:
CPU E7200
Asus P5QL Pro
4GB DDR2
HD 4850
I've installed Snow Leopard (Chameleon 2 RC3), and everything worked well except the problem:
- When I shutdown or restart, there is a message like : Hold down the power button to turn off. I must hold down the power button to turn off the PC, that's so uncomfortable!
I've tried to install OpenHaltRestart or EvOReboot, but the problem wasn't solved.
Anyone has idea?

p/s: sorry for my bad English.

Try Chameleon RC4, I heard it has shutdown fix integrated.
