A friends computer running Xp always reboots after shut down. I have tried without joy to fix it. Same happened to me when I fitted broadband but I got round it. The problem still occurs even with the broad band disconected. I have dissabled the "restart after error". The **** thing will not shut down!! Got to pull the plug within 20 seconds. Any Ideas?

don.lilley,

•get to your system's BIOS,
•make sure you disable all the "wake up on ? event"
where "?" could be: "Lan" or "Ring" events.

hope that helps
keep us posted.
