Win XP service pack 2 don't turn off :/

What do you mean windows SP2 won't turn off? Uninstall it from the add/remove programs if that's what you want to do [I wouldn't suggest this] but if that's what you need to do go for it.

If the PC won't switch off, then i think the experts will need more details, or else just press the power button on your PC for 4 seconds and it will turn off immediately [to be used only in emergency]

Sorry about the detail, the computer wont turn off. The only icon on the taskbar is the speaker

[Adrenalin]

so you press the start button >>> shut down >>> the computer tries to shut down but ends up freezing with only a speaker in your taskbar?

[I'm A Guitarist :D]

No it just has the speaker there. But i can do anything else i want. If i want i cn open the stuff on the tasbar i had before again like NAV 2005, i can open it and it goes back etc.

So then why are you having a problem shutting down the PC? It should shut down if you try to shut it down with no problems. Not sure I get what you are trying to do or what the real problem is here

[I'm A Guitarist :D]

What happeneds is, i want the computer turned off. The computer closes the programs but not the computer :/

[Adrenalin]

Does a screen come up that says 'end program'? or any other screen?

Also what pc is it? which version of windows/other operatins system are you using?

[I'm A Guitarist :D]

It dont say anything

I am not using another operating system

Press and hold your power button for 10seconds, when the fans switch off, you computer is off.

I heard about this way ages ago, but i want it normal

[Adrenalin]

Well with the info you have given me, i was not sure if this was the first time, or what OS you we're using, sometimes a simple reboot fixes certain issues, i am also speaking from what I have gone through, other than that, i am unable to help you.

Perhaps you should wait for someone more experienced to reply :-)
