Vista - Shutdown with vista 64bit

Hey

I have recently upgraded due to a GPU failure and my new setup which is fully updated interms of drivers, bar crashing ocasionaly which i think is memory related I get the weirdest error when shutting down. It doesn't happen every time but enough to be a pain when I go start shutdown it starts exiting all applications like is normal then it just stops and after a few mins resums shutting down but my M/B doesn't automaticaly turn off I have to hold the power button for 5 secs to turn it off. So I am wondering if anyone knows whats happening, i though was driver related but their fully upto date.

My M/B is asus striker ii with intel quad core 2.83ghz 4gb of ram with nvidia 285 gtx motherboard

Try backing down to a previous driver version or two-- the latest and greatest isn't always the best.
