It doesn't matter if I click on Restart or shutdown, the computer will not
shutdown. It keeps restarting. I went to power Options in Control Panel and
everything is set right.

Hi,

You could check your BIOS to see if your computer is programmed to wake
on certain events (like network requests).
I once had a motherboard that did that.

This behavior may occur if Windows stops responding during a during the
shutdown process. By default, the computer is configured to automatically
restart when Windows stops responding. To view this setting, follow these
steps:
1. Click the Start button, right-click My Computer, click Properties, click
the Advanced tab, and then click Settings under Startup and Recovery.
2. Under System Failure, clear the Automatically restart check box.

You should get an error message, troubleshoot from there.
 
99% of the time a pc does that,it's a hardware conflict...If you recently
added
a piece,try installing in another slot or connection.Or,if many pieces,remove
until the problem ends..Also,you may check event viewer,if a piece is
failing,it may show up there.
