if that doesn't work then referr to the following: When does it do that right when you turn on the computer or later on... if its right when you turn on the computer then open up Notepad.exe and type in shutdown -a and save it as SHPREV.BAT then put it in your startup folder. If its not when you turn it on then do the same steps but put it on the desktop instead of your startup folder and then whenever it starts counting down then double-click SHPREV.BAT and then it will stop shutting down and you can continue what you were doing...

I have a similiar problem. I get a message randomly (but mostly when I log on) that "Services and Controller App encountered a problem and needed to close". After I click send error report or don't send, I get the countdown telling me that windows will shutdown, except it doesn't. It just shows me nothing but the desktop with the taskbar and ther icons stripped away. Can someone help me please?
