Hi,when I click the "shutdown" the pc restarts.
Motherboard is a "socket 478 processor based
Mainboard" .I cant find any relevant changes in the
BIOS.Nor in the power managament-alternativs in XP.
Anyoe can give me a hint on this?
 
thanks Will!! It was the Logitech mousedrive 9.10 who
causes the trouble.Ijust uninstalled it,the mouse works
fine anyway.Very fine link you provided.

thanks again..

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) unless you
are actively needing a dump for debugging something, or to 'minidump' if
you are getting errors that you wish to report on to Microsoft. You
may now get a Blue screen failure instead, but at least will get some
guidance as to what is happening
