Here are a few that may affect Win XP shutdown and restart. Stop 0x9F and Stop 0x8E are two of the most common of these at shutdown, and generally point to a bad driver. Stop 0x7B on restarting means Win XP lost access to the system partition or boot volume during the startup process, due to a bad device driver, boot sector virus, resource conflict, boot volume corruption, or other problem listed here.
Stop 0xCA can when on restart after a system administrator has modified permissions so that the SYSTEM account no longer has adequate permissions to access system files and folders.
System Restore provides an alternate approach, especially if you need to go back further than the last known good configuration, and Device Manager provides a tool for rolling back to an earlier driver. If Windows gets that far, or farther, then it has shut down correctly. However, the computer may not powerdown correctly after that. This is a different problem, and I encourage people reporting these issues to make a clear distinction in their labeling. Try enabling it and see if this resolves the powerdown problem Tip from Terri Stratton.
MSKB This should resolve the powerdown issue in most cases. However, other factors can sometimes interfere with correct powerdown functioning. In that case, consider the following tips:. Here are the ones I know about:.

Last week, after about 30 minutes of use, my Windows XP Home sp2 pc shut down without warning. When I say "shut down", I more accurately mean "powered itself off immediately".
At first, I though it was some strange power problem, but the pc successfully boot back up immediately after I pressed the power button. The crash damaged my Norton AntiVirus, so I un-installed and re-installed it.
Then, the crashes became more frequent. Now, it crashes during boot-up after 30 or so seconds. I thought it might be overheating, so I checked the two fans in the case and the CPU fan, and they all seem to be working correctly.
I suppose it could be some loose connection in the power supply. What do you think? Thanks in advance!! Share Flag. All Answers. Collapse -. Sounds like a virus,however. Edit Add 0 Votes. To me it sounds like. Also, are you plugged into a UPS? This could be from a lot of things. In reply to A. User's post on December 23, I appreciate the answer, but it really doesn't answer the question.
If I was talking about my own personal computer, this is the answer. However, if you read the question again, you'll notice I'm referring to working on multiple client computers. I dont want to change their WU settings, and half of the time, the updates are already downloaded when I get there, ready to install.
I'm just trying to perform a simple reboot or shutdown and dont want the updates to run when I do that - but would like to keep the settings to however the client had them set beforehand. Again, Windows XP had the selection when choosing shutdown, "shutdown without installing updates" and a reboot also didn't install them. What I'm looking for is a command maybe at the command prompt, or some other way to perform a quick reboot without installing the updates.
Thank you. I'd much rather get my work completed GBorn Volunteer Moderator. Beside the answers of Jose and PA Bear: Have you tried log off and then open the drop down menu of the shutdown button located in the lower right corner of your desktop.
There should be a command to shutdown windows 7 without installing updates. Or did I misinterpreted something? Type this In reply to thx's post on September 18, Thank you for your answer but I don't see a switch that disables the updates from installing No switch is needed.
