It does appear in his case that Shutdown is proceeding normally until the point at which PowerOff is applied. John, would you like to run the utility called PowerOff (off the top of my head, I think it is in $.!Boot.Library, or maybe $.!Boot.Utils) and tell us what happens? You should probably run a *Shutdown command first (Switcher > New task) to ensure that filing systems are shut down properly, and make sure you don't have any unsaved work!
