Has anyone found a way around the Win 98 shutdown problem? I’ve found that if I do a restart and then a shutdown, everything is cool. Users understandably don’t want to take that much time.
from what I’ve heard there is a IDE hard drive cache update through windows update that is supposed to help…
If you’re trying to do a memory flush, you might try downloading a program called “MaxMem” from TechTV. Its free and it does a great job once you’ve set it up right. I’ve got it on my machine and have seen a definate improvement on the machine’s performance since I installed it.
Have you tried the Win98 shutdown suppliment? It fixes a lot of shutdown problems that 98 is known for.
Here’s a link.

Why is it putting a space in the word default?? its not there in preview, only after posting.
remove the space between the L and T in “default” and it will take you there.
I’m running Windows 98 SE, which has the update.
Thanks.
The one I posted was FOR win98.
Create a shortcut for this:
C:\Windows\RUNDLL.EXE user.exe,exitwindows
When you double click it Windows will exit without asking anything.
Thanks, Whammo. I didn’t know that you caould download that anymore.
