Windows reboots after shutdown
in [Help and Support]

From: paulhk88 on 4 Dec 2006 21:08 When I shutdown Windows, it shuts down and reboots after a few seconds. I checked Events Viewer\Applications and the only warning is: "Windows saved user OMEGA\Paul registry while an application or service was still using the registry during log off. The memory used by the user's registry has not been freed. The registry will be unloaded when it is no longer in use. This is often caused by services running as a user account, try configuring the services to run in either the LocalService or NetworkService account." Is this the problem? If so how do I fix it?

From: paulhk88 on 5 Dec 2006 03:30 No new hardware installed. I have even set in the System properties (Startup and Recovery) not to restart in the event of system failure. Is there anywhere else that has such a setting?
