The system was running fine for a couple of days. But then it wouldn't shutdown properly again.
I had updated the NVidia graphics driver, the Intel Ethernet driver, and a program (ImgBurn) and plugged my computer via ethernet into my router to transfer some large video files to NAS. It was after this point that I noticed the familiar trouble.
I installed a restore point taken when all was well Thursday evening (01/06). I reinstalled the two drivers mentioned above. The system still won't shutdown or recognize when I put a USB device into a port. Again, at the office while plugged into the HP USB Docking Station all functions normally.
I ran Griff's diagnostics and a perfmon report, as well as a procexp report, and have attached them here. Would you please review for a suspicious culprit I may have missed.
I'm thinking that something in the HP Docking Station is causing the issue. I can always tell if the system will hang at shutdown by inserting a device into a USB port. If it's seen, all is well. If not, shutdown will hang. When I'm plugged into the office all is well. When I'm away, it is hit or miss. I also noticed that DisplayLinkService was listed as an "unresponsiveService" by xbootmgr. (When the system hangs at shutdown xbootmgr is unable to trace anything and reports "Shutdown action failed: No disk IOs found.")
I will uninstall the HP Docking Station (it runs DisplayLink drivers) and report what happens.
