    Shut down
    In my windows98 SE system, it is not showing "safe to shut down window" after I install some software or hardware to restart the computer or shut down the computer. It is struck at processing shut down. Please reply.

    I only found one hit in searching the web for that exact message:
    http://forums.windrivers.com/showthr...oto=nextoldest

    If you have an AOpen video card, it may do the trick for you.

    I hope this helps. If not, I'm sure someone more expert than me will be along shortly :D

    Safe to shutdown
    Hi,
    Have you ran scandisk and scanreg /fix from the C:> prompt?
    Have you ran Scandisk and Defrag in Safe Mode?
    If you haven't, the above might fix the problem.
    Best wishes,
