    build 7068 won't shut down, completely


    Hello Everyone:
    I installed win7_x64 7068 in dual boot as the second operating system to Vista 64. It runs sweet, found some obscure drivers (like USB to serial),works with office, my AV and even does a good job with Fallout3.
    It wound shut down though, it hangs at "shutting down" and the cursor just spins there, until I pull the plug, it boots back without any complaint, so I'm figuring it's a situation, and not a flaw.
    Any ideas?

    Hello David,

    Welcome to the Seven Forums.

    Has this always happened or did it just start.

    this always happens, everything closes down, but the system hangs at shutdown, there an audio related fix on Win7Vista, but it didn't work.
    I'm inclined to think that it may be some pesky app that won't properly end, but there are 40+ services loaded.

    download and install the latest version of ccleaner. See if that helps to fix your problem. Be careful what options you tick though. You'll want to run the registery checker.

    Hi everyone:
    Thanks for your help.
    I have tried the audio fix and it didn't work,(Win7Vista help)
    Swarfega: I did try Ccleaner and no luck.
    I tried watching the processes during shutdown for a "sticky one", lotsa luck hehehe.
    I booted and shutdown in safe mode, with no luck.
    I've Google'd the problem and there's enough for a large support group with the same problem.
    I'll keep looking ,and keep you posted.

    In the old days of XP Id have suggested removing all the files in c:\windows\prefetch but not so sure now. It looks a bit more integrated.

    Just out of curiosity, what does your task manager show running (screenshot if you could)? I had this issue with an older build of W7 and since using 7077 have not had that issue again. Also, what AV are you using?

    Try killing the Logitech KB related stuff and see if that makes a difference

    I agree with johngalt, there's far too many Logitech entries for it to be healthy. Did your system shut down ok before installing these drivers? Or did you not get the chance and installed them straight on first boot?
