re: Question about 'When I choose ''Shut Down'' from the Start Menu, my computer restarts instead of shutting down' Friday, July 10, 2009 at 2:41 am Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Alan Shine (3 messages posted) I have an HP Worksation XW6400 I've been directed here by Belkin, I installed their Belkin Hi-speed usb 2.0 firewire pci card F5U508ea, since then my pc will not shut down just reboots. I've tried changing the power down from 0 to 1 but that never worked sadly the Bios options "Wake on Modem Ring" and "Wake on PCI PME" dosn't exist in my Bios, Belkin said it may be called something else and advised me to come here. So here I am I had a heart attack in March so this is not doing my stress levels any good & hope someone can help me it's wrong in this day and age to be holding down the power button for 4 seconds on a machine that costs over a £1000.
