My Toshiba Laptop shuts down slowly -- 5 - 15 minutes.

If I first remove the PCMCIA LINKSYS WPC54-G WIRELESS PC CARD, shutdown is prompt.

What do you suggest?

I'm not sure of the exact syntax, but the pseudo code/flow is as follows:

- wipe drive
- install Linux

Note that you end up getting tons of other benefits apart from quicker shutdowns/startups as well. :-)

Is there a NET command to do the samething? I could first run it from a Batch file before shutting down.

I don't think MS has implemented the above in .Net yet. But there's probably an open-source solution available.
