    This is a long shot you may try. Go into Services and disable the Windows Driver Foundation.

    You can use registry mechanic to remove registry error. :) so your pc will shutdown more faster everytime you shutdown. It has system monitor option. You can see how long the time your pc take to boot startup and shut down. :)

    Most of us here do not recommend a registry cleaner unless you are very familiar with the registry and know exactly what you are doing. Win7 manages the registry much differently than XP, and even Vista, and much more efficiently. There are some solid and sound reasons for this advice.

    Does not work

    Boot in safe mode then shut down. If it works, my hunch is a driver.

    Startup or shutdown delays are often logged in the Performance-Diagnostics log at Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Performance Information and Tools\Advanced Tools
