[sad] Should you currently using Windows 8 or 8.1, you might experience the problem that Windows 8 or newer do not really shut down by default: Instead, all applications are terminated and the system is suspended to disk (similar to "hibernate" before Windows 8). As a result, you might need to "restart" or choose to boot into the BIOS from the Windows GUI to do a "real" reboot. HTH Linux-Fan -- http://masysma.ohost.de/
