" Shutdown Signal " doesn't work.

Post by CIMT »

I am currently running Mac OS X SL ( guest ) on my Windows 7 ( host ) .

I realised that I must always " Power off Machine " to shut it down instead of " sending a shutdown signal " . When I click on " sending a shutdown signal " , nothing happens.

:shock:

Any help will be appreciated. :D

Probably because the OS is not configured to respond to it. Check it's power settings.
