Vista build 5744 does not restart or shutdown properly

After installing b. 5744 I found that Vista does not restart or shutdown
properly. It just "hangs" and I would have to manually surpress the reset
button on my computer to restart or power button to shutdown.

Anyone have any answers?
 
I don't have any answers for you, but I am having the same problem. Vista
(5600, and 5728) used to shut down or restart in just a few seconds, but now
(5744) it just shuts the screen off and hangs. But even that takes a while.

Mine started doing it during the upgrade somewhere near the end. Did yours
do that too? Just curious.

Initiator, VIA VT 8237 Raid Controller, 2 GB Ram, 160 GB disk space.
 
Yeah, mine did the same. After I took the cd out and thought it would reboot
on it's own but it didn't.

Stephen might have an answer for you but it didn't help me.
 
Please download the Microsoft Beta Client and report this to Microsoft
directly. More than likely it is a driver issue. However try to go into the
control panel (classic mode) and choose power options and choose the high
performance option and then try again to shutdown.

I have the same problem; I have the nforce3-a939 motherboard but it does not
use the via raid controller. So I guess I'm still stuck there.

Thank you for your time.
 
I have this problem too. Sleep, hibernate, shutdown, restart, nothing works.
Monitor will go off, USB ports will power down but nothing else. I have to
do a hard power down to get it to shut off.

Specs:
I'm running an ABIT NI8-SLi board with a GEFORCE 7600GS card. I have a
Pentium D dual core processor (overclocked) and 2 gigs of OCZ 5400 ram. In
Windows XP I can shutdown fine. FYI, when the problem started I was using
an old Nvidia device driver that was compatable with Vista RC1. I've since
uninstalled and deleted that driver.
