FEISTY RESTARTS ALL ON ITS OWN!

Hi Everyone,

I just donated a new computer to my son.  It has two hard drives.  Drive 
#1 is the original WinXP Pro SATA drive.  Drive #2 is a new SATA drive 
to provide more workspace.  I installed a dual boot setup.  WinXP Pro on 
Drive #1 and Feisty Beta on Drive #2.  I changed the boot sequence in 
Setup to boot from Drive #2 first.  When I tested this arrangement in 
Ottawa, all appeared to be OK, so my son took the box with him to 
Willowdale in Toronto.

He reported to me this morning that, if he selects Shut Down from 
Feisty, the box shuts down OK, but then immediately restarts itself.  
The only way he can do a proper shut down is to start XP and then shut 
down from there!  Not a very desirable process.

Does anyone have an idea how I might correct this? 

Best wishes to all, Maurice
