Win2K AS Hangs on Shutdown

[Guest]

Running on a Gateway server, when I shutdown or reboot the server, I hang
with a flashing cursor in the upper left hand corner. This makes it really
difficult to restart from remote! I've not been maintaining this server
very long, but since I have been maintaining it, this problem as always been
here. According to the previous maintainer, 'It never did that before!' ...
Uh hu, sure.

Anyway, I'm not usually a Windows guy but more of a Unix guy (can I say that
word here, Unix?) so any help in the right direction of troubleshooting this
should be great!
