I have a question about When
I choose "Shut Down" from the Start Menu, my computer hangs at the "Please Wait"
screen:
The same thing happened to me all of a sudden: the computer hangs at "Windows is
shutting down ..."
The strangest thing about that: I re-formated the hard disk carrying Windows (my
D drive) and
restored all Windows files from a backup tape that was made BEFORE the shutdown problem
occured,
and it STILL persists! A hardware problem?
However, I found out that I can turn off the power as soon as that screen "Windows
is shutting down ..."
appears, without running SCANDISK or any other ill effects at the next bootup.
