Huh... That works to get my system to shut down fast. Thanks for that Lee!
But mine doesn't seem to want to 'remember' the fix as yours did. That
bulletin says there's a 'hotfix' for the problem, but gives no URL for
downloading it anywhere. Instead they suggest you, "contact Microsoft
Product Support Services to obtain the fix." Microsoft *$^@&^!%#!
:-/
Now if I can only get W2K to play my MP3s again.
