I guess I missed the beginning of the thread, but if it's a 98 shutdown
problem, you can go to http://support.microsoft.com and get a patch to fix
that.  Before you do that, go into MSConfig and Disable the fast shutdown
option and see if that works for you first.

Subject: Re: [PCBUILD] Windows 2000 hard drive problem


> Hello, sorry for the confusion. The computer has an "AT" power supply so I
was expecting to see the "IT is now safe..." message and manually turn the
computer off. However, what I get is "Windows is shuting down", a click from
the hard drive, video goes off but hard drive and power LEDs are on. It is
almost as if Windows thinks it has an ATX power supply. Everything seems to
be fine when I reboot. I would not worry about it except that the hard drive
makes a dsturbing sound and the hard drive LED remains on. Any suggestions
would be appreciated.
