I wouldn't say that. There's different ways of powering down a system,
and you may have to tweak the BIOS to suit both OSs. Been there, done
that, myself, with a couple of dual boot PCs.
If you get desperate, you can reboot instead of try to shut down, and
use GRUB to power off the PC. Stick the following below your kernel
choices lines in the grub.conf file:
title switch off
halt
Depending on your motherboard, you might have to try:
title switch off
halt --no-apm
