WIIN XP MEDIA CENTER, CAN"T SHUT DOWN/RESTART FROM START MENU
have had this windows xp media center just over a year, of course the service warranty expired (just found that out, no notice to ectend or anything)...anyway, starting yesterday when i go to restart or shut down from the start menu, nothing happens. the screen takes on the black and white appearance like it is to shut down, but after i click shut down the desktop comes back to normal again! never had this happen with any computer i have had. driving me crazy and i can't afford to do the pay for tech help (unless they charge it to my dell bill, bet that won''t happen)...can anyone help me with this...give me an idea what could be the cause.
i have windows xp media center on a 310 i believe. thanks for any help you can give me....someone told me not to get a dell but.....
thanks agiain,
kaki
send any responses to my email cause i may not get back to this site for a few days or so.

When this happens, what is the reading of the power button LED, green, blinking green, solid amber, blinking amber?
Check the reading of Diagnostic Lights on the front panel?.
Try using this Shutdown & Startup Troubleshooter.
