| 96732 | 2002-11-07 05:34:00 | Normally on 'shut down' it would go 'saving settings' - 'windows is closing' then - 'its now safe to turn off' Recently it gets as far as 'windows is closing' and no further. Turning off the computer at that stage does not incur a dialog box saying 'your computer has suffered...........' when I restart. I've tried 'Enable power management' on Screen saver. Can anyone help please. Joseph. |

| 96733 | 2002-11-07 06:48:00 | Shut down in XP is a known bug... what you must do is install SP1... that should take care of it! Lo. |

| 96735 | 2002-11-08 01:45:00 | I had this same problem. It is the WinLogon.exe file and has been fixed as mentioned in sp1. I disabled my password (as I the only user of my machine) and it shuts down fine. I cant install SP1 on my early version of XP Pro. |

| 96737 | 2002-11-09 07:03:00 | Hi Steve Would you be kind enough to e-mail me a copy of SP1, so that I can close my XP pro: with dignity. I seem to have tried everything else suggested. I recently converted C/ from basic to dynamic and FAT32 to NTFS which may have upset things. Cheers Joseph. |

| 96738 | 2002-11-09 07:20:00 | Hi Joseph, I don't have sp1 but I do have the shutdown patch. Give me an email address & I will send it to you. Cheers Steve |

| 96741 | 2002-11-27 08:47:00 | To those people posting e-mail addresses here, please be aware it's not a good idea. Public forums get "harvested" by robot applications collecting e-mail addresses for spam merchants. There is nothing the hosts can do to stop it, its unfortunately a fact of life. If you start receiving masses of unwanted / objectionable mail, you will know how it came about! |
