If I am doing a restart in my ME then after logging off the screen goes blank and that is it.It doesn't actually restart the comp.The state continues and if I am forcing a reset then the scan disk appears,next time I reboots.Can any one suggest what is happening??

You are getting a shutdown hang. This is often caused by backlevel device drivers or Malware programs that do not shut down correctly.

The easy thing is to clean up the system, scan it for virus or other Malware, remove unneeded programs and update all of the Device drivers to the latest Windows ME versions from the different hardware vendor sites. The hard way is to follow Microsofts proceedures for tracking down the cause.

Both are covered in links from Windows ME fixespage
