I had exactly the same problem. Unfortunately for you, I found that my antivirus software, Norton 2000, was scanning floppies for boot sector virus on shutdown. I disabled this from Norton Autoprotect.
But if you don't have that software, could it be that something else is doing it?
What motherboard do you have and what chipset?
Not really sure- how can I find out?Quote:

like said previously i still think its someting not shutting down still ME has a problem with fragged drives (not just the one ME is on) so if you havent tried it defrag all drives even after a clean install ME messes up the drives( personal opinion) try using task manager and shut programs down before shutdown to isolate a prob even when you stop a program in msconfig some can still startup!!! (msn messenger) Go to www.mcafee.com and try there performane optomiser you get a free trial it checks your file system and hardware config it it cant fix it it will still tell you what problems you have if all fails reinstall windows
I went to Mcafee- but the closest thing I found to performance optimizer was the Mcafee Utilites which has a performace optimizer in it. Only problem is it's for win9.x not ME.

supports Windows 95, 98, ME, NT or 2000
It has to be connected with your DSL or cable modem. I have a wireless broadband modem and my computer does the same thing. Before I installed the static IP address always on modem, Me shut down just fine. Ever since then I have had the shutdown problem. Unfortunatly I can't find a fix.
what brand/model is your usb ethernet adapter you may need new drivers for that and or the usb ports on your mobo
