re: Question about 'When I choose ''Shut Down'' from the Start Menu, my computer hangs at the ''Please Wait'' screen' Tuesday, April 23, 2002 at 9:55 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by R.D.Santangelo (2 messages posted) We have found that running 4 patches from microsoft seems to fix the problem with shutdown in 90% of the cases. I tried to copy them to this response but I could not. I will give you the file names and you can search the MS kb for the files. All four files should be run. 1)239887USA8.exe, 2)253711usa8.exe, 3)260067usa8.exe, 4)shutdowndelay.reg.
