| 472911 | 2006-07-23 03:01:00 | Hi All . . . I am a newbie to this forum and found most of the posts really helpful . . So thought someone could solve my problem as well . :help: Whenever I press the shutdown option in my computer, it restarts . I am Running Windows Xp SP2 . I had this problem before and I completely formatted the computer . The problem still exists . I tried No-Adware, Adaware, Spybot and Bazooka . None of them show any problems and scanned with Norton and Bit-Defender . Everything seems fine but still the problem exists . I have the "Automatically Restart on System failure" properties of the System Properties Disabled . I am having it disabled even before the computer was formatted . Hope to get this problem solved . Cheers Richie |

| 472912 | 2006-07-23 03:15:00 | Hello there, welcome to PressF1. Whenever I press the shutdown option in my computer Just want to clarify one thing, what did you mean by "shutdown option"? Did you mean when you click Start > Turn Off Computer and it automatically restarts? Or did you mean this occurs when you click "Turn Off" in the shutdown options? Cheers :) |

| 472913 | 2006-07-23 03:22:00 | The restart is XP's way of dealing with a "serious failure" unloading a driver or similar process at shutdown. I would consider renewing the major drivers one at a time, see which one fixes it. |

| 472915 | 2006-07-23 22:23:00 | I was thinking it might even mean push the shutdown 'button' on the PC to turn it off as you can change the effect of this as well. | Nutter (10601) | ||
| 472916 | 2006-07-29 12:58:00 | do you have an optical mouse or keyboard? if so check the power settings under properties and turn off the option to allow this device to restart computer | jad01 (422) | ||
