Go to the Run command and type msconfig. From there I beleive you want the advanced option. Then you should see a checkbox for fast shutdown, un-check it and see what happens.

Try forcing apm 1.0 mode in the properties of APM Support and see what happens ... if it works properly, then it is a problem with the power management and you can try removing and reinstalling doing a hw detection of non-p'n'p hw.
Seen this work on many 98 systems.
