    Windows XP shuts down, but...

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone had this problem before.

    Windows XP shuts down but won't power down and reboots. This has only happened since I took out cyberlink DVDrw software and installed Nero and InCD. I get lockup when I insert a rw disk, but if the disk is left in and system rebooted it's normally ok.
    I have checked nt power management and took the check mark out of restart my computer "Box".

    I occasionally get this error on restart as well..



    If anyone has any suggestions, I would very grateful.

    Kevin

    Update:

    I now know that it is InCD that is causing the problem. I uninstalled all of the new Nero and InCD software and the PC shut down no problem. I installed Nero and it still shutdown. It only kept restarting after I had reinstalled InCD.

    How would I go about finding out why InCD is causing this?

    A further update:

    I have since discovered that InCD is incompatable with Windows XP and is also unnecessary apparently. So no InCD installed and no problems anymore.
    I now consider this case closed.
