Have you disabled Fast Shutdown?

Start Run, type: msconfig

Select the "Advanced" button (on the "General" tab) and tick the box
labelled "Disable Fast Shutdown"

If you've already checked this, make sure the game/program is closing down
correctly, and has finished closing down, before shutting down your system
(press CTRL+ALT+DEL and look for it in the list).
