    Sometimes my M6847 hangs and take a real long time, like 15 minutes or longer to shut down? :confused:

    I've ran AVG Virus scanner, Spy bot, Defragged, Window Care etc and it still happens from time to time. It's like when MS is doing the updates, but it is not saying that when it happens.

    Any ideas? Should I do a clean install? I have my files and photos safe on my external HD.
