    Thanks for your work, Bongo! I got it to work on my personal computer, and now I have to get around all the restrictions on our public computers... but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to!

    Thanks again!

    Can the public get to Personalization in the control panel or right click menu?
    If you do not like it showing up in Personalization as nostartbutton (I should have name it noshutdownbutton) let my know I know a way to make it aero in Personalization.

    Awesome fix! Is there a way you could create a customized theme based on the Win 7 Classic theme that does the same thing? That is, "hides" the Power button? Much appreciated.

    Welcome to the Seven Forums

Trying to disable chkdsk completely.
