Don't mess with the registry. That's a problem I used to see with Windows 98 boxes. You didn't say what you are running.
Assuming 98 though:
To disable fast shutdown, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click System Information.
2. On the Tools menu, click System Configuration Utility.
3. On the General tab, click Advanced.
4. Click to select the Disable Fast Shutdown check box, click OK, and then click OK.
5. Click Yes when you are prompted to restart your computer.

Hi,
When I think of things that would turn on your computer for, my first though is that in the BIOS you have the following settings on
WAKE ON LAN
WAKE ON USB
etc
Maybe this is causing it to start again. It would not be your registry as that is just a windows thing, so when windows has shut down thats the end of the registry. Could be a faulty power supply. If you pull the power lead, does it start up on its on when you plug it back in?

Never change your registry if you are not used to it. Your registry is your computer. Any change might corrupt your system and many programes might stop working. Do this: While your computer is starting, while it's checking the memory, press Del to enter setup. Press the key that loads your BIOS default. You will be fine. Jamie has the idear

run>regedit
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Shutdown
change the settings:
0 - Log Off
1 - Shutdown
2 - Shutdown and Restart
3 - Shutdown and Power Off

You can run the program "REGEDIT" to edit the registry.
But be very sure of what you do as registry changes can affect the system very adversely.

If you have to ask this question, you definitely should NOT try to edit the Registry.
Windows continuously Restarts tells me your PC is infected.
Take it in to a PC repair service.
