I suggest up[censored] your chipset drivers, and if that doesn't do it, see if there is a BIOS update for your mobo.

You are probably correct in that there is some driver or service which will not allow Shutdown to go further. You could download this from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/detai...;displaylang=en

to help clean up the hives in the registry that would allow for a clean shutdown.

Try reinstalling the modem. Make sure to uninstall it, reboot, then reinstall. This will help to make sure that you have a clean installation. There's no guarentee that this will work, but if this issue is being caused by your modem, them it wouldn't hurt to try to reinstall it.
