Why does my Laptop reboot after shutting down? Its strange as this problem occurred only after I updated my OS and drivers.

Are you getting any error messages when this happens?
One suggestion is to try the following:
1) Click on Start
2) Type sysdm.cpl in the search dialog box and press Enter
3) Click on the Advanced tab
4) Click on Settings under Startup and Recovery
5) If there is a check beside Automatically Restart then click to remove it.
6) Click on OK to close Startup and Recovery
7) Click on OK to close System Properties
8) Reboot the computer
9) Shut down the computer to test to see whether or not this helps.

Another possible solution involves editing the registry: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/windows-7-computer-restarts-automatically-after/daeb457a-3509-4be9-a85b-2935c8c3e108
Only use the second option if you are comfortable with editing the registry. I suggest you make a backup (export) copy of the registry before making any changes.
