XP Shutdown fails to turn off computer

Hi
Have a fairly aged computer which we have just upgraded to Win XP Pro.

All is fine except that when we shutdown, windows shuts down but leaves
computer on with a message to turn off manually.

This is odd as over the years with Win 98 & ME it has always shut down &
turned off without fail.

Any ideas please?

Thanks Richard
