You can "Disable Scandisk after bad shutdown" from the advanced
tab in the System Configuration Utility.  Yuo can disable the
fast shutdown, often the cause of a failure to shut down
completely, by following the instructions at:

Hope this helps,                                        :}      Jim

Subject: [PCSOFT] Win98 won't shutdown!
Hi,
I have Win98 in my system.  Everytime I install a new
application, it asks me to
exit all windows programs running.  So  I hit  ctrl + alt + del
to  'end task' all the
application running in the background EXCEPT  explorer and
systray, then I proceed
back on installing the new software.  However, after the
installation is finished, it would ask me to re-start the system
(which I normally do even with Win95).And when  all the displays
are gone the screen would give me a prompt 'Windows 98 is
shutting down'
and it will stay there forever.  No actions ever taking place.  I
guess I've waited long enough to see something happens.
