Troubleshoot Shutdown Errors

SUMMARY: Troubleshoot Windows 98 Shutdown errors by disabling Fast Shutdown.

Will Windows 98 fail to shutdown correctly? Normally, Windows 98 does what is called a "Fast Shutdown" so you can turn off your computer quicker. If these enhancements keep causing problems, you can disable Fast Shutdown.

1. Click the "Start" menu, choosing "Programs," "Accessories," "System Tools," and then "System Information."
2. On the window that appears, click the "Tools" menu, selecting "System Configuration Utility."
3. On the multi-tabbed dialog box that appears, select the "General Tab," and then click the "Advanced..." button.
4. On the dialog box that appears, check "Disable fast shutdown."
5. Click OK to close the dialog box.
