Attn: Malke Re: My PC restarts after shutdown (?) any help appreciated!

[Guest]

Malke,
Thanks for the tips! Unfortunately, I've already tried them :-( Not sure what's going on with it, but it just doesn't wanna shut down (like I said, goes through all the motions, but then reboots automatically).

Thanks anyways! If anyone else can offer any tips, please let me know

Unfortunately, since you didn't post back to your original thread or
quote any of the problem, I don't know to what you're referring. This
newsgroup gets over 1,000 new posts every day and I'm afraid I just
can't remember them all. So, what did you do to troubleshoot? What tips
did I give you? Keep to this thread for more help.

You have something that is crashing on being asked to close - and the
system's 'automatically restart' is cutting in. Turn this off: in
Control Panel - System - Advanced, click Settings in the Startup and
Recovery section. There uncheck 'automatically restart'. You can also
usefully change the 'write debugging information' to (none). You may
now get a Blue screen failure instead, but at least will get some
guidance as to what is happening
