windowsxp shutdown

[Bobo The Drunken Elephant]

I can help you. This is a common problem and is probably
in the MSKB also.

Get into your system properties (right click my computer -
left click properties) go to the advanced tab, get into
the startup and recovery settings and uncheck
Automatically restart.

If that doesn't do it then it is a BIOS problem, so go
play with those settings (only if you know what your doing)
