Computer will not turn off

[Olga F Jartin]

I am using Windows XP. When I turn off my computer it
goes off and on again. The only way I can turn it off is
by manually pressing the Power button. Then it has to run
Scandisk whenever I turn it back on. Can anybody help?
Thank you.

A shutdown troubleshooter http://www.aumha.org/a/shtdwnxp.htm
Press WinKey-Break,(or start/run 'sysdm.cpl'), click Advanced Tab, Start Up...
area, Settings button, Remove check from "Automatically Restart" On the next
reboot, you will be able to read the error that caused the restart.
