is there a patch or fix for Vista for the shut down.
When I shut down the computer it goes in to a reboot not the shut down

Hi,

There'd only be a patch if this was a known issue with a certain cause. It
isn't, so there isn't any single patch to resolve it. Generally, when
something like this occurs it is due to either a software bit not responding
properly to the terminate signal, or that there is a hardware
misconfiguration. The biggest clue as to which is whether or not the system
has just started doing this, or that it has always done this. If it's a
recent thing, and you made no hardware or BIOS changes, then it's likely to
be a software issue. Look to recently installed or updated programs
(particularly regularly updated bits like your antivirus software).
