Hi, I don't think it's the kernel's fault, because I can shutdown the PC 
normally when there is NO wakeup time in the BIOS.

In the BIOS, I use mainly predefined values, except that I had to turn 
off ACPI function in order to solve an IRQ conflict in Windows XP. The 
problem is just that the wakeup time in the BIOS prevents the PC from 
switching off.
