I installed 5536 on my laptop, but when I choose to shut down it restarts instead. It makes no difference whether I use the windows or the pc shut down buttons. I did not have that problem with Vista Beta 2. Any suggestions?

Aw, my names being used again

Felix... Go to your Start menu... In the search box type 'run'... click run to open the command prompt... once there type 'shutdown /s'... this should theoretically shut down your pc in 1 minute! Tell me if it does or doesn't.

It shutdwon and restarted again.

Ok... so it means that the script is corrupt... reinstall windows... you don't need to format, just a repair, hopefully that will work... Sorry I can't be of more help but the script is closed source so I can't find the problem or help you fix it any other way

Crabby, I did a repair but that din't work. I did send problem to Microsoft.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help. It doesnt look like an advanced power management issue, so microsoft is the only way to go
