Win XP Pro resets instead of turning off

So I rebuilt my toy today. New AMD 2.5 Gb processor, 80 Gb drive and a virgin install of XP Pro. Imagine my dismay the first time I came to turn it off when it just closed down, then restarted.
I've been into 'My computer' and unticked the automatically restart in startup and recovery, to no avail. There are no apps in there at the moment, just the sound card and video drivers, and Netscape.
I spent 2 hours downloading sp1 (dialup ) to no avail, so now not a happy bunny.
HELP
TJ
