LOL... it's shutdown -s to shutdown the PC or shutdown -r to restart.


EDIT:

Usage: shutdown [-i | -l | -s | -r | -a] [-f] [-m \\computername] [-t xx] [-c "c
omment"] [-d up:xx:yy]

No args Display this message (same as -?)
-i Display GUI interface, must be the first option
-l Log off (cannot be used with -m option)
-s Shutdown the computer
-r Shutdown and restart the computer
-a Abort a system shutdown
-m \\computername Remote computer to shutdown/restart/abort
-t xx Set timeout for shutdown to xx seconds
-c "comment" Shutdown comment (maximum of 127 characters)
-f Forces running applications to close without war
ning
-d [p]:xx:yy The reason code for the shutdown
u is the user code
p is a planned shutdown code
xx is the major reason code (positive integer le
ss than 256)
yy is the minor reason code (positive integer le
ss than 65536)

shutdown -s -t 3600

Will shut the system down in 1 hour (3600 seconds), and bring up the countdown window.

Or download Kill Winamp, which has an option to shut down the PC after a set # of minutes (as well as othe roptions relating to Winamp stopping/closing etc after a set # of songs)
