Windows restarts on every shutdown

About a month ago, Windows XP began restarting automatically on *every*
shutdown. I have to wait until shutdown is complete and turn off the power
supply to keep it shut down or it just restarts. Some have suggested it is
related to USB devices. I have not added any new USB devices. The only
thing I did recently was direct connect USB devices to the PC instead if a
USB hub. I reconnected to the hub and it still restarts. I had no such
problems for three years with this machine so something must have changes to
cause this problem. Any ideas on pinpointing the cause of the cause of the
problem?
