your machine is probably trying to end a process that is running in the background before it shuts down. that process doesn't want to be ended, or you might not be allowed to stop it (are you admininstrator on this machine?).
before you'll be able to shut down or restart from windows(instead of unplugging and removing the battery on the darn thing), you'll have to isolate the process that isnt ending and manually end it. Unfortunately, it is not really possible to give you a simple solution to your problem, but I suggest updating and running msconfig and disabling any unecessary startup programs.
