Windows Vista will not shut down

i just upgraded from XP to Vista and so far am kicking myself for it. After I
installed and got all my drivers updated i went to shut down windows and it
will not shut down. It closes all programs goes to the shut down screen and
then turns black and I get the blue screen of death. The pc then reboots.
Everything seems to be working proprerly and it is running great, I just have
this one issue. If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them.

Thanks,
Glenn

You should post to MS.public.Windows.Vista.General or Install-Setup. This is
a .Net Programmer's forum.
