This article has a link in it to pages full of articles on shutdown
problems.

Definitely, try... "START, Run, MSConfig, Advanced button". Check
"Disable fast shutdown", if there. The item won't be there, if you have
downloaded a certain patch from Windows Update.

Naturally, you will not sue,
should things get worse after this,
