Hi,
I have a problem with my computer occasionally restarting on shutdown.
Sometimes when i shutdown it reboots.

It might be the same with this case, but I have multi OS installed on my computer with Windows 7 loader.

Using Remote Desktop (RDP/Terminal Services), I can't select Shutdown/Reboot from the Windows XP start menu, so I generally have to open a terminal and enter shutdown -s -t 0 to initiate an immediate shutdown.
