Problems with Windows 98 Second Ed.
I am experiencing a problem with shutting down. When I attempt to turn it off, it appears as though it will but it reverts back to start. In other wordds, I am not able to shut down my computer unless I turn it off manually. (click the buttons)
Please provide some information to assist me with this minor problem. The e-add: sjgarbutt@hotmail.com |

Did you try disabling fast shutdown?

In Win98 SE, the "disable fast shutdown" is checked by default when you open MSCONFIG and click the advanced button. I did not like that, and it never was a problem before in the standard win98 so I unchecked it and rebooted. Well I thought nothing of it until later on when I decided to shut down. The same symptoms as sjarbutt described, the computer would not shut down. It would restart instead. Of course I checked the box again, and all is well now. Looks like fast shutdown is disabled for a reason in win98 SE lol
