PC Problem

Usinf XPs2. Comp does not want to shut down. Takes about 10 minutes and won't respond to any urging. The shut off (power) button doesn't help Any ideas? Otherwise everything works fine.

Pull the plug? No electricity, no power...

Press the power button for 10 seconds and it should turn of.

Thanks guys. Pulling the plug won't work because its a lap top. This problem went away after a few hours and hasn't returned.. No idea how or why. I use a broad band internet connection but don't see how that could have any meaning.. Thanks again.
