What would cause my computer to sometimes reboot immediately after I do a
shutdown?

TIA

Is it a notebook or a desktop PC?
I haven't had that problem with desktops, but some older Compaq and Dell
(and probably other) notebooks would do that after a system update like with
a service pack. The solution was to reinstall the manufacturer's power
management software.

Check the power settings in the bios, possibly set to turn on after loss of
power.
 
You haven't provided any information to help us diagnose your problem.
It's most likely to be a hardware issue and most likely to mean your
power supply needs to be replaced.
 
Looks like the problem was resolved after I disabled the WOL feature on my
network card.

Thanks to all.
