Shutdown problem

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion (More info?)

Click Start>Run, type MSCONFIG and click OK.
On the General tab, click the Advanced button.
Click to put a check mark in the box for "Disable fast shutdown", and click OK.
Click OK to close Msconfig, and restart the computer.

If that does not help, or if the box was already checked, or wasn't there, go here:
Windows Shutdown Troubleshooter:

Do you have Quicken installed on this computer?

Try the instructions I posted, putting a check-mark in "Disable fast shutdown", in
msconfig, click OK, and reboot.

If that does not fix it, and you have Quicken installed, the problem may be
Qagent.exe, the Quicken Download Manager.

To disable the download manager in Quicken 2001:
- Click Edit | Options | Internet Options.
- Under "Background Downloading", select "Don't use background downloading".
- Click OK.

Please post back with your results.

That's because we hang around the same street corners ;-)
