| Problems shutting down :( Hi. i've got a Pakardbell Media Centre 2005 editiona and i regularly have shutting down problems. I've had them for a long time and thought i should do someting about them. When i click shut down, the computer goes through the normal process of "Logging off" and then "saving your settings", but when it goes to "shutting down" , the computer becomes silent (it normally makes noises when processing) and the screen stays the same. The mouse cursor is able to move. Sometimes whne shutting down, i get a dialoge box which is closing a programme called "CCAPP.EXE", in oder to shut it down i have to click on "End now" any ideas what could be causing the problem |

You may try uninstalling it and see how your shutdown is working. Then reinstall it and see if the reinstall has fixed the problem. However if you are still suffering slow shutdowns with it uninstalled before you reinstall it then it is something else causing your problem. It could be a multiple of things. I would start with Norton though. Good Luck, Joe Kemco IT Tech "ArseNa!" wrote: > Hi. i've got a Pakardbell Media Centre 2005 editiona and i regularly have > shutting down problems.
