    Hey guys,

    I put it in the other thread but think it deserves a thread of its own

    If you have installed xp on your 5920 and find it wont shut down, uninstall the web cam driver from add/remove programs.

    Re-boot and all will be fine. windows will use its own driver and the shutdown problems will be gone.

    Well they have for me :D :D :D

    It was a long way while my XP installation became perfect on my 5920G, but you have put the crown on it Datamonkey. Thanks for you tip, worked perfect!
