there's a patch for this released by microsoft... it only occurs with certain hardware combinations under 98.. search the anandtech threads for it (i know this was discussed in the last week or so) or search microsoft's technet for windows 98 shutdown fix...

uh, there is no how-to... it's a bug. there's a patch. if you don't want to download it, don't download it. too lazy to not even have to drag your ass out of your chair? whatever.
