Blue Screen on Reboot Only

Hi,

I've just formatted a system and installed a fresh copy of ME, nothing
else.

However, when I try and Reboot, I get a blue screen saying: "You
computer failed to reboot. You need to power off the computer wait a
few seconds, and power it back on"

Sure enough that works. If I choose Shut Down, that works fine also.

Is there anything I can do to prevent this blue screen on Reboot??

TIA
