re: ''Shut Down'' from the Start Menu, my computer always restarts Sunday, January 13, 2002 at 1:33 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Tomi (20 messages posted) I had the same problem too. I found out that the "Automatically Restart on system failure" -option was selected on Control Panel --> System --> Advanced --> Startup And Recovery Settings. So my computer rebooted because of the Blue Screen Of Death caused by that little system tray utility "Project Selector" which is a part of the roxio Easy CD Creator 5 Platinum -suite. I removed the Project Selector startup entry from the registry and now my computer shuts down properly. -Tomi On Saturday, January 12, 2002 at 12:28 pm, Scott wrote: >When I go to start shutdown...my computer always restarts..I can get a soft shutdow >only a restart.
