Hi Carey,
When I shut down windows XP, instead of actually turning off, it reboots. It shuts down when I hold in the power button as it reboots. It will not shut down at the shut down command.

Thanks,
James B. Shafer


Hi James!

This could be a power supply issue, however there are some diagnostic steps you can take to try to remedy the problem. Visit this web-site for complete details and the how-to: http://aumha.org/win5/a/shtdwnxp.htm
