Hi I think the best way to describe my problem is to list the things I can and can not do...
These are the things I can't do:
1. log off using the dialogue box (start >> log off)
2. shutdown/restart using the dialogue box
3. shutdown/restart using task manager
4. Other programs that request a restart (after
installation or changing preferences) can not get it to
happen either.
Now here are the things that DO work:
1. switch users using the dialogue box
2. Log off using task manager
3. shut down from the welcome screen. (This is the only
way for me to turn off my computer)
Windows doesn't hang or anythign like that. The simple
thing is that nothing happens. I tried shutting down and
left the computer for 1 hour after which I was still
loged in and could use the computer normally.
Frustratting!!! (but not really a horrible problem. I am
just very curious as to what can cause this behaviour).
Thanks
Mike
