xp pro restarts

[Mike J]

when i tell computer to shut down it restarts instead. It
was working normally and i can't think of anything i
installed or did that was out of ordinary. all updates are
up to date. was checking here before i try a restore
point to see if anyone had a similar problem or a fix. TYIA
