Hi, I have just bought a laptop from Hi-grade. Its the M6400 model with Win XP. When I choose shutdown it keeps looping and re-starting. The only way to switch off is via the power button. Please help.
 
IMPORTANT : This article contains information about editing the registry. Before you edit the registry, make sure you understand how to restore it if a problem occurs. For information about how to do this, view the "Restoring the Registry" Help topic in Regedit.exe or the "Restoring a Registry Key" Help topic in Regedt32.exe.

SYMPTOMS
When you shut down your Windows XP-based computer, your computer may restart instead of shutting down, and you may see a blue screen for just a moment before the computer restarts.

CAUSE
The behavior can occur if the following conditions exist:

You have "automatically restart" selected.

The Roxio Easy CD Creator 5.0 or Direct CD 5.0 program is installed on your computer.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, contact Roxio or view the following Roxio Web site to download and install the updated driver for Easy CD Creator 5.0 for Windows XP:

To work around this issue, uninstall Roxio Easy CD Creator or Direct CD.

MORE INFORMATION
Windows XP may encounter a problem during startup that results in a STOP error message. Depending on the system configuration, the error message on a blue screen may not be displayed long enough to record the error information. To gather important information about the STOP error message and to verify the cause:

Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties .

On the Advanced tab, click Settings under Startup and Recovery .

Click to clear the Automatically restart check box under System failure , and then click OK . The error message on a blue screen should remain on the screen so you can record the error information.

Go to the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Security

Hi, i dont have the riox s/w installed. I disabled the restart option the the advanced tab. This is the error that came up on re-start -

Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updates. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.
