This should get you started. The CHOICE command is available in most versions of Windows but may require that you get the Windows NT 4 resource kit. The CHOICE command is available in Windows 7.

@ECHO OFF
CLS
ECHO 1.Restart
ECHO 2.Shutdown
ECHO 3.Close all Windows
ECHO 4.Log off
ECHO 5.Switch User
ECHO.

CHOICE /C 12345 /M "Enter your choice:"

:: Note - list ERRORLEVELS in decreasing order
IF ERRORLEVEL 5 GOTO SwitchUser
IF ERRORLEVEL 4 GOTO Logoff
IF ERRORLEVEL 3 GOTO CloseAllWindows
IF ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO Shutdown
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO Restart

:Restart
ECHO Restart (put your restart code here)
GOTO End

:Shutdown
ECHO Shutdown (put your shutdown code here)
GOTO End

:CloseAllWindows
ECHO Close All Windows (put your close all windows code here)
GOTO End

:Logoff
ECHO Logoff (put your log off code here)
GOTO End

:SwitchUser
ECHO Switch User (put your switch user code here)
GOTO End

:End
