Win2K eh?

Is this your's or the Boss'?

Win2K is very delicate in the admin world.
Do you have administrator rights?

If so,
Start
Control Panel
Administrative Tools
Computer Management

Now you can hunt around and find out what the OS is wanting to do at shut down, start-up etc..
If you are set to scan disk at shut down, and your P/S is non holding, then you are lossing power during your scan disk. Therfore, OS does it at start-up.

I must ask though. Why would you shut down a machine that runs Win2K?
