Hi S,

This is a common problem in Win98 SE where Fast Shutdown is still enabled.
Run MSCONFIG, click Advanced, and make sure Fast Shutdown is disabled.
If the Win98 SE Shutdown Supplement was installed this option will be not
appear in MSConfig. If that doesn't do it go to James Eshelman's Shutdown
Troubleshooting Site and go through it step by step.
