I edited this : append = " ide=nodma apm=off acpi=off ide=nodma apm=off acpi=off "
to look like this: append = " ide=nodma acpi=off ide=nodma acpi=off "
The system still won't shut down completely.

First this line has unusefull duplicated entries. Second it looks like the entry for the Safe settings.
Don't you have another "append" entry : the first one ?
Do you use SMP ( two processors) ?
If so your append line could be :
append = " ide=nodma acpi=off apm=power-off"
Please send me your file /etc/lilo.conf and tell be if your kernel is SMP and if your machine shutdown completely with Windows.

Yes, the computer shuts down completely with Windows. My kernel is not SMP: orion@cosmos:~> rpm -qa | grep "^k_" k_athlon-2.4.19-66 Here is my /etc/lilo.conf file: # Modified by YaST2.
