as the topic says, i cant shutdown my comp now. wen i do, it just starts up again by its self without powering off. only way to turn it off is to hold down the power. i checkd my d drive and got this .txt doc, somthn to do with log and i looked at the bottom and got this: MSI © (90:80) [21:31:05:593]: Decrementing counter to disable shutdown. If counter >= 0, shutdown will be denied. Counter after decrement: -1 MSI © (90:80) [21:31:05:593]: MainEngineThread is returning 0 anyone kno how to fix it and help me be able to shutdown again? thx
happen to know where that txt file came from? and try this http://dreadbob.blogspot.com/2008/05/how-t...down-in-xp.html except instead of changing it to 1 change it to 0 because the text file you showed about is saying if anything is greater than or = to = then don't shutdown or at least that's what my theory is lol good luck edit: actually that is most likely not what you're looking for, this seems more probable http://aumha.org/win5/a/shtdwnxp.htm
