PC Won't Shutdown, Always Hangs At "Shutting Down" Screen
Dec 5, 2011When I try to shutdown my PC it nearly always hangs at the "Logging Off" or "Shutting Down" screen, the only time it shuts down properly is immediately aftwer it has been freshly started. It seems to me that a program or driver is causing the problem.

Windows 7 X64 Hangs When Shutting Down
Aug 16, 2012I've got problems with this system I'm building where it hangs (crashes?) on shutdown.
System:
Motherboard Commell (QM67) LV-67HTXD
CPU Intel Core i7-2620M
RAM 2x 4GB, DDR3, 1333MHz, Kingston
PSU MiniBox M2-ATX-HV
1. The problem only appears in Windows 7 64 bit
2. Clean start and shutdown in Win XP - implies software issue not hardware
3. I haven't tried Windows 7 32bit yet.
Here's some details of my investigation so far:- All of these tests failed to solve the problem.
Unplugged all devices. Fresh install Added manufacturer base drivers. Windows updates applied Safe mode Windows clean start only one memory slot filled (both slots)
In desperation I've created a trace file (using this article Gathering a Startup, Shutdown, Sleep, Hibernate, or Reboot Trace - Windows 7 Forums)

Windows 7 Hangs Up When Shutting Down
Feb 15, 2012I am having a problem shutting down Windows 7, it appears to hang up and I have to push the power button on the computer to shut down.

Jan 18, 2011I have a HP Pavilion which I purchased from Best Buy with the Vista operating system installed. This was of course prior to Windows 7 being released. I ordered the free upgrade disc but postponed doing the upgrade until just last weekend. While I like Windows 7 or at least what I have seen of it so far, I have encountered several problems that I have been unable to resolve.
1. When trying to restart or shut down the computer, it will log me off but then hangs at the "Shutting Down" screen. I have to force the shutdown by holding the power button.
2. I cannot copy and paste or cut and paste anything. Even in Windows explorer when working with files, explorer stops responding and I have to go to the task manager to close the program. This happens whether I am trying to copy and paste one file or a batch of 400 articles. It also does not matter if I use the right click menu or keyboard Ctrl C /X/ V.
I have run all of the Windows updates and installed all but a few optional updates that seemed to be unrelated to any problems that I am encountering, or related to hardware that I do not have installed on my system. I can copy and paste in my email program, Thunderbird, but the copy/cut/paste problem seems to be limited to Windows Explorer.
Windows 7 64 Bit Hangs At Welcome Screen?
Jul 3, 2011I've had windows 7 ultimate 64bits for a year now on my brand new pc, and today he starts and slowly ... around 35 mins to show desktop and will take forever if i click anything. I restarted in safe mode and it works perfectly, there are no exclamation points on the device manager. The only major change i have done but not recently was my video card from Nvidia to raddeon saphire.

Nov 22, 2011I was handed a computer to try and clean up yesterday. It is an 2 GHZ AMD 64 bit CPU running windows 7 64-bit with a whole 1 GB of ram. Yes I said 1 GB of ram, I cringed too. I've got the owner convinced to upgrade that to 4GB and he's gonna go with a dual core processor while he's at it which should make a ton of difference.In any case, on to the problem. The windows install was pretty bogged down, somewhere around 80 running processes and no free physical memory. The machine actually booted to the desktop fairly quickly but wouldn't respond to anything due to all the running processes. I went through the task manager and killed enough tasks that I could navigate. I ran ccleaner on it to clear some junk. I went through the startup processes and cleared all the non-essentials. I went into the add-remove programs and removed the junk. I ran ccleaner again and cleared up the remnants and even ran the registry cleaner. I ran malwarebytes and an AVG virus scan and was actually surprised to find the system very clean. It's whole problem seemed to be an absurd amount of "legit" startup items. After I got it all cleaned up to around 40 running processes I defragmented the drive using defraggler and manually bumped the size of the swap file up to 1.5x ram.
The system is now running great, well as great as it can with only 1 GB of ram. All except for one problem.... when the machine boots up it comes to the screen where you can select a user, I select the user and then it hangs on the welcome screen for as much as 20 minutes before it goes on. It didn't take more than 20 minutes to boot before I started!How can it possibly be booting slower now with an optimized drive, larger swap file, and 0 extra components running at startup?
Windows 7 Hangs At Welcome Screen?
Dec 2, 2012yesterday I was using my computer and it was working fine. I turned it off (like I do every night before bed). And when I turned it on again today it got stuck at the Welcome screen. I thought that maybe it was just a one time problem (most of my computer problems are) so I shut if off manually using the power button and the booted it back up again but it got stuck at the welcome screen again. So it is off now. This computer is homebuilt and it is almost 1 year old.

PC Hangs On "Shutting Down"?
Aug 2, 2012When I shut down my pc, everything goes well until the system hangs at "shutting down" and i have to turn it off manually with the power button. I first thought some of my settings were wrong, later i thought a reinstall of windows would fix this. But after all that nothing helped and im still stuck with this problem. I tried most of the tips people gave on the internet but nothing of them really helped. When i check my event logs it gives 2 different errors : "Kernel-Event tracing" and "ISCT Agent" (2 times). It also gives a warning at "Wininit"

Aug 22, 2012My PC's display just went off while I was surfing the net...first I thought it was the screen, so I plugged in another screen, windows booted and same happened after a few minutes after startup...screen just goes off...Now to my knowledge it can be 2 things:
1. graphics card
2. RAM. Notes: I do not get any beep errors...
I would like to know, what are the best software available for testing RAM issues? Also, I am using AMI BIOS(american megatrends v7.4, 2009), how do I do the startup memory diagnostics? I know there is a shortcut for it...
Also, I'm typing on the PC now that is giving me issues, don't know how long until display goes again...

Install Hangs On Starting Windows Screen
Nov 17, 2009When I run the Windows 7 Home Premium OEM disc I get past "loading files" and then freeze on "starting windows". I see 4 little colored balls in the center of the screen (guessing the start of the MSFT logo) and then everything freezes.
Here's what I've got:
Monitor: Samsung T260HD 25.5in Rose/Black LCD w/ATSC
HDD: 2 x Seagate 1.5TB Serial ATA HD 7200/32MB/SATA-3G
Memory: Corsair Dominator 6144MB PC12800 DDR3 1600MHz (3x2)

Motherboard: ASUS P6TD Deluxe Intel X58 Socket LGA1366 MB
Power Supply: Corsair 950w 80 Plus Power Supply
GPU: 5850 is backordered, so am using an old Nvidia 6600 GT to attempt to install Windows - connected to monitor with DVI cable
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium OEM
I've done lots of research and tried:
1. Using a PS2 keyboard/mouse
2. Disabling USB in bios
3. Disabling just about everything else in bios
4. Tried w/ 2MB, 4MB and 6MB ram
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Jan 16, 2012For a while (ever since I updated my BIOS, I think) my computer have been taking around 10 minutes to shut down and after the 10 minutes it shows a blue screen for a second and then it restarts/shutdown. I recorded the computer screen while it was shutting down and was able to take a screenshot of the blue screen. This is what it says: Code: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen. Restart your computer. If this screen appears again follow these steps:
Check to make sure any new hardware or software or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need.

Jan 6, 2010After recently building a custom PC, I am doing a clean install of Windows 7 (64 bit) and all goes well through the installation process (loading, expanding files, etc) except when after the 2nd restart when it starts up for the first time. It freezes or hangs on the black “starting windows” screen (the one with the new colored windows logo).
I have tried installation a number of times, including with a bare bones configuration (2 Gb RAM, 1 HDD, 1 DVD Drive, GPU, and all other peripherals disconnected) and still the same thing happens. I have also tried the process using the VGA cable instead of the DVI.
I was able to successfully install XP after failing to install Win7, so I don't think my HDD is bad. I am also using a PS/2 Keyboard
System:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad (Q9650) 3Ghz/1333Mhz/12MB

RAM: Mushkin 4Gb DDR2 SDRAM (2 x 2Gb)
PSU: Antec NeoPower HE550w (ATX 12v)
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) OEM system builder pack
All components were purchased new from Newegg. I also have some peripherals: 2 DVD drives, Multi card reader, extra USB, firewire ports, wireless LAN card (although I disconnected those for the initial install attempt).
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I am really at a loss to figure this one out. Could it be something to do with my video card driver? (Do I need to install that in the BIOS?)--I can see everything fine on my monitor though.
PC Hangs On Black Screen During Shutdown - Fresh Install Windows 7 SP1
Oct 17, 2012I recently got a PC that my office was getting rid of. The PC was in great shape and I was told it worked fine when they gave it to me. They ripped out the hard drive and gave me the machine. As soon as I got it, I put a brand new 2Tb Seagate HDD in. I also replaced the existing RAM (2x1Gb sticks) with 2x 2Gb sticks with the memory speed to match my motherboard. Finally I swapped out the ATI Radeon HD2900XT with a Nvidia Geforce GTX 460. There was a sound card (PCI) I removed as well as a redundant firewire port I unhooked from the Mobo. I then booted and peformed a fresh install of Windows 7 32bit Pro. Everything seemed to be going fine... until I tried to shut down. Windows would freeze on the Shutting Down screen. I mean freeze because the spinning circle would stop and the entire machine was unresponsive.
I read online that pre-Service Pack 1 Windows 7 didn't like multi-core processers and would have issues shutting down, so I updated to SP1 (along with a bunch of other updates). Now when I try to shut down, the Shutting Down screen disappears and the signal to the monitor ends, however the machine stays on. I can hear the fans running and see the lights to the PCI cards still on. Once again I have no option but to hold the power button until it shuts down. One extra note I double checked every driver and they are all up to day. Also when I boot in Safe Mode the PC shuts down fine and I have no problem restarting, just shutting down...
Re-Installing Windows 7 / Process Hangs In A Black Screen With Cursor?
Feb 9, 2013I have been trying multiple times to install Windows 7 to my hp pavilion g6-1007 laptop from an installation DVD but with no success so far. The problem is that I can't proceed with the installation. Every time I put the DVD and boot from there, first I see that black screen with the bar at the bottom saying "loading files".And after it finishes, it gets to a black screen (with only a cursor present) and then it does nothing more than that. It hangs there, no matter how much time I wait. The DVD-ROM also throttles down and the HDD activity LED stops blinking at all.I thought about a crappy image, so I downloaded the repair disk iso and burned a CD with it, but then I got exactly the same behavior. I'm thinking now of perhaps trying to install from a USB stick, as a last resort.
