How to assign "shutdown" command to a key combination?

I have Windows XP SP3 Home

I'd like to assign the "shutdown" command to a combination of keys.

But I don't want to install particular programs to do it.

I am asking if that is possible.

Well the easy way would be to create a shutdown shortcut on any place you want. Then open it's properties then assign CTRL + ALT + S to execute it. You can use anything instead of "S". I use this method to start Calculator/uTorrent/Snipping tool and it works quite well. :)

I do not spot such a power button here. There is this moon button - but that was no good (I will never push it again :lol: )

You could assign the moon/sleep button on the keyboard to shutdown via windows power settings.
