Hi, for some reason my Win2k takes minutes to turn off
from a shutdown, I get the saving your settings message
come up, and then the message goes and the screen stays
blue and after a few minutes shuts down.

I am using SP4 and all the updates, and it's a new profile
I'm using.

There appears to be a hotfix available from MS (thanks Neo)

but you will have to telephone MS to order it.
