Hi all, Have now sorted problem, automatic updates screwed. Had to stop automatic update services Re-name c:\windows\softwareDistribution to:- c:\windows\softwareDistribution.old re-start services & re-boot all now ok.

Hi all, have a problem with my PC since i dowloaded updates from microsoft updates. Was downloading 5 or 6 updates in the same session Updates seemed to stop downloading after an hour had no choice but to switch PC off, now whenever i try to reboot or shutdown PC it takes approx 3hours but it does succeed in rebooting or shutting down with no errors in the event logs, is there a timer on how long a shutdown takes, or any other ideas? Am running XP Pro sp2

If you can, in safe mode or from a dos prompt Try un-installing the nVidea 6600 GFX drivers, it worked on my AMD system. Found that the original drivers on the disc supplied, dont work I let windows auto discover & used windows version drivers no problem since. Well it worked for me.
