Okay so we know it's not a hardware problem. Do you have roxio? if so;


By now, the Roxio/Adeptec Easy CD / Direct CD software is well documented as being the major cause of this undesirable shutdown behavior. SOLUTION: Roxio has released new drivers to solve this problem in both the Platinum and Basic editions of Easy CD Creator 5. As expected, at least half of the Win XP shutdown problems went away with the release of these patches. But recently took the patch down. Uninstall roxio, or try to manually update the drivers.


Let me know if you have roxio, and update here.





If you do not have roxio:


several different USB-related issues can impact shutdown. One of the most concrete examples was a “reboot on shutdown” problem contributed by correspondent Rick Bross. If his several USB devices (PDA cradle, flash card reader, etc) were plugged into the motherboard’s USB ports, his computer would reboot on an attempted shutdown; but when, instead, he plugged them into an external USB 2.0 hub, shutdown went just fine.


So unplug all unneeded usb components then try to turn off the computer. Post additional details here to let me know if it still restarts.
