* Is this a Windows *server* version, or is it one of the newer desktop OS's like Windows 8? Windows 8 seems to shut down rather fast, its quite possible its not bothering to wait for services to exit.*

In Windows 8 and Windows Server no problem. *It seems like Windows isn't waiting for the service to exit cleanly before its pulling the plug.* I think so, but I don't know how to solve this problem.
