SOLUTION ON SHUTDOWN PROBLEMS
I had the same experience on my friends' ibm 2196-31Q running WinXP which was win98SE
before, the computer always restart on shut down. I have tried every advice from
various forums regarding this type of problem. Some worked for a short period of
time, like unchecking the checkbox on task scheduler (start>>run>>type msconfig>>service
tab>>uncheck task scheduler) and restoring default on CMOS(presing del,ins and f1,
this depend on what you should press, you can see this right after you press the
power button to enter setup, bootup then selecting restore defaults and save the
settings) but most did'nt. What I would like to add is on how I solved this problem
totally, I have noticed that when you're computer shutdown it save settings as it
shows in the screen when shutting down, this may refer to small issues of what you're
computer remembers before turning off, like the processes running and what are connected
to the CPU, if something is different when you turn on the computer, it reconises
a wrong pattern according to what it remembers and thus affecting the system, this
was the issue on mine. I have discovered that when using my computer while connected
to the internet and tried to shut down, it did shutdown completely or just having
the telephone line connected, Btw, i use dial up in connecting. Another is it remembers
what was connected to it(CPU) before it shutdown (mouse, keyboard, monitor, telephone
line and speaker), this can also cause abnormal shutdown. In conclusion, don't change
anything before you turn on or off the computer. This worked for this type of computer,
not sure to work on others.
