Perhaps this will help, from the version announcement:

"I've just updated the version of shutdown to 1.7-1.

This version adds the -x/--exitex option, which allows to use the
ExitWindowsEx function on Windows NT.  This is important if shutdown is
supposed to poweroff on Windows 2000, since the InitiateSystemShutdown
implementation on Windows 2000 unfortunately misses to do this."
