The last time I check for my friend. He has to change the motherboard because of the cheap that control the power got burn. I am trying not to scare you but just check it out just in case. I may be wrong.

sounds a lot like what i said except the registry edit

Hi caperjack,
I was directing him mainly to the registry edit, I have had problems in the past and I now use that tweak. Since I have set it up, windows never hangs for any time on shutdown. Sorry if it sounded like I was repeating your post that was not my intention.

Just do this

now i am sending a solution

(ctrl+alt+del).
task manager
In that shutdown option is there.
