Is there a way that I can have my computer turn off after and program finishes doing something. Example, copying a CD, downloading a file, after like 10 minutes. Would I just go under Power Management and say when the computer is idle for 10 minutes to shut down. Or will this shut down even when a program is running?

Try putting the following in a batch file, then calling it from MS scheduler.
rundll32.exe shell32.dll,SHExitWindowsEx 1
You might be able to somehow add that command line to the shortcut of your screen saver. Then set the time you screen saver starts to 10 minutes. I havent tried that though.
Look at http://support.microsoft.com/support...n_SRCH&SPR=W98
If that doesnt work, which it probably wont, go to the MS knowledge base, and search for "How to Exit Windows 98/Me Automatically Using a Batch File"
