    Windows 7 - Hangs on shutting down & other issues.


    I don't know what's going on but one once in a while, when I shut down my laptop ( Windows 7) it hangs which forces me to hold the power button to shut it down.
    Also, I just viewed my event viewer panel and I see that there are 585 issues, most are WARNINGs.
    I need urgent help!

    Errors listed around the time of the initial shutdown command would be MOST helpful. It sounds like you have a program or a service that tried to take the shutdown command and hung.

    Maybe this hotfix would apply:

    You cannot make a computer that is running Windows 7 shut down or sleep
