Taking a Millie to shut down.

Jrock81 · Aug 24, 2008

My laptop is less than two months old. I havn't downloaded much stuuff at all.
I like to put it in sleep mode, and at night shut it down every other day or so.

Within the last week it's taking so long to shut down I went to the dinner, came home, and it was still "shutting down". It was more than 30 mintues, so just took the battery out!

What's the deal? :huh:

Hi Jrock,

It sounds like you have a program that is not responding to the shutdown command and causing this delay.

See if this tutorial can help you. Be sure to take a look at the Microsoft link in the TIP box also.

In the mean time, here is a shutdown shortcut that will force everything to shutdown when you use it.

Hope this helps,
