Now I know this question has been asked many times and I have read all of the replies, however after doing most of what was recommended, I still have problems with shutdown. However when I go into safemode, it shuts down correctly. When I restart, it will shutdown correctly and restart as per normal.
I have gone to the microsoft page and followed their instructions on shutdown and testing, but still no correct shutdown.
I have installed all the patches required – wont shut down.
Made a shortcut using rundll.exe – wont shutdown
I have upgraded my VGA driver – wont shutdown
I have disabled my power settings in the control panel – wont shutdown
I have run sfc and it detected a corrupt setup file, I restored from CD but still no correct shutdown.
I have checked my device manager and there are no conflicts and no duplicate entries.
This is a new installation of Windows 98SE which was installed by an outside company. I did notice that they have fiddled with the logo and it has theiradvertising on it. Im not sure if this could be part of the problem or not.
Im going insane here. Anymore suggestions or is there something I may have missed?
Thanks in advance.
