Restarts after shutdown!?
hello
after reinstalling my operating system for the third time! and doing some updates and installing some applications now my PC restarts few seconds after shutdown ...i have to turn off power after shutdown! what could be the reason? Please help Thank you |
try shutting down from the command line
as root Code:
#shutdown -h now Its how I shut down my slackware system, should work for any distro tho. If not, check your dmesg and logs for weirdness. |
I have had a couple of older computers (Pentium, PIII) that did not respond to the "-h" argument.
But they never tried to restart themselves. That's truly odd. |
code did not work

The code did not work and nearly 10 seconds after shutdown the computer restarted. Thanks |
Wow...that's really weird. What kind of machine are you using? Have you tried any other OS? If this behavior persists even after changing OS it may be a BIOS or hardware issue.
Try running this command as root Code:
#dmesg | less |
Reinstalling OS solved the problem
