Win98SE Shutdown Probs
Hi
I have been having Win98SE shutdown problems since installing it. I use an older computer (P150MMX w/32 MB's Ram). My problem is that sometimes the computer hangs at the "Windows is shutting down" screen. If I reboot the computer and immediately shut it down, there are no problems. But if I have used the computer (i.e. surfing, maintenence) it hangs every time. I have applied the update patch, checked for "Load" and "Run" in win.ini, disabled fast shutdown (before patch), disabled PCI steering, and checked my power management features. Nothing has worked. Please see below for my bootlog and if you have any ideas, please post them. Thank you snip Terminate = User Terminate = Query Drivers EndTerminate = Query Drivers Terminate = Unload Network EndTerminate = Unload Network Terminate = Reset Display EndTerminate = Reset Display EndTerminate = User ** That's the last entry. My understanding is that it should end with kernel? |

Win98SE Shutdown Probs
If I were you I would just go Start = Shut Down =
restart in MS DOS Mode, allow the computer to go into DOS mode and then switch it of manually.

Please see below for my bootlog and if you have any ideas, please post them. Thank you I'm glad you posted this query because I was ready to begin a new thread on this very subject! I have a power switch at desk level, so my habit is to shut down in "restart" mode - switching off the power when the computer goes to sleep. For the past couple of weeks, my computer has hung up at "entering sleep mode" and I have to soft boot to get it to move on. It occured to me that this behavior began shortly after we converted to cable & router. I wonder if that's a factor, of just a coincidence? I've also had a problem with Eudora for the past few days. I get a pop up window saying something is covering up their ad... but the ad is nowhere to be found. I've had this problem in the past, which I solved by upgrading.... but I don't need or want an upgrade and would rather not do it. I've already posted the problem on a Eudora ng, but didn't get even a minor response, so I reported it as a bug tonight. Practice safe eating - always use condiments |
