Thanks for the very helpful post. I hope the original poster finds a solution. My 
experience of fixing 98 shutdown problems with MSKB articles hasn't been good - there 
are too many (other) causes. That's why I suggested googling - you find other people 
with similar situations to your own if the 'prescribed' fix doesn't work - which 
at least give you more chances of a fix that does work.
