    I have some code that should remotely shutdown my Win XP Pro machine,
    but there seems to be a problem with it. When I call the method

    .Win32Shutdown SHUTDOWN

    when the machine is logged on it works fine. If I try this when the
    machine is logged off nothing happens. I have tried adding + FORCE but
    this will not work. It is not the ForceGuest issue as I have disabled
    this already. The only argument that gets a reaction is POWEROFF which
    doesn't actually power the machine off but diaplys a black screen and
    stops it responding!

    I have searched through some postings of similar issues but have not
    found the answer.

    Cheers
