W. Cochran

My problem is that When I try to shut down windows, it
restarts insted, and when I hit Restart it restarts. Is
there a fix for this?? In the middle of restart prosses I
have to hit the power button for computer to turn off.
Need a fix for TURN OFF button in windows Xp pro.

Hi,

Disable everything that reads 'Wake up' in the BIOS settings. Also, I have
seen this behavior if you have a CD/DVD in the drive during a shutdown.
