Do a search for all the .bat files on your puter and make sure someone didn't leave a reboot batch file on your puter in an attempt to be funny.

On a Windows 2000 you can ask to shutdown or restart the PC as the last option of the Start button. It appears as a triple choice in the next popup screen, just scroll down and you will find the normal shutdown option.

Other possibility:If you have a PC computer designed to become a Windows Server, it reboots automatically when the power supply is switched on (nice after after a power failure. This behavior can be selected by jumper or in the BIOS setup pages.

Who has manufactured your computer and what is the model of the motherboard ? We will search for you.
