Shutdown=Reboot problem

Hello all,

Weird issue where if I tell Ubuntu to shut down the system reboots. I have no idea how or why just that it does it every time I shut down.
Running 12.10

I have looked on google as Ubuntu forums and a few other have had it but threads ended there. No resolution.

Anyone help?

Yes they also reboot the system. It's weird as it pretty much does hard shut down. Then about 4 or 5 seconds after it switches on again.

Defo not the button as the Win7 shutdown is fine.
