OK I've had this before i know its a simple fix ... but i cant remember how to fix it.

my PC refuses to shut down when i tell it to. (start -> shut down -> shut down)

any one know how to fix this? i remember that its some stupid setting with what the shutdown buttons do, but i can remember how to edit them.

Either do Desktop->Right Click->Properties->Screen Saver->Power and change the settings there (under WinXP) or push the power button once quickly (10 secs will power off, a quick press will start the power-off sequence).

maby i have worse problems than i thought, i had it set to when i presed the power button once it would bring up the shutdown menu, changed it to shut down like you said ... NoPE wouldnt do it. and that should work no matter what .... damn it.
