DISABLE FAST SHUTDOWN

One advantage of Windows 98 over Windows 95 is a faster shutdown sequence. But this is achieved by powering down the computer without having each running application shut itself down first. This sort of thing could be dangerous. If you want to disable this feature, you do the following: click on the Start button, then Programs in the Start Menu, then Accessories, then System Tools, and finally System Information. When that program starts up, you click on the Tools menu to get to the System Configuration Utility. When you click on the button for Advanced, you can now make sure to put a check mark next to Disable Fast Shutdown.
