PC won't shutdown

<< < (3/3)

Shane:
If checkd isk got stuck at 11% it is either because it hit a bad sector OR you have bad memory. chkdsk will fill your memory when doing a scan, so if you have a bad memory module then it would cause it to lock up.

If you have a lot of memory installed it may be the higher section of memory where it might be bad and might be the reason you only see the problem shutting down.

So you ran another program to check the drive, I never used that one, but if it is correct and the drive has no bad sectors then I would do a memory test next. :wink:
