Do you have it installed on a standard, non-stripped down installation? My copy of W2K came with SP3 as part of it. And when 1st installed, it shut down fairly quickly. Don't imagine installing SP4 will ever speed things up. I wonder if some Windows specialist may know how to speed up the shut down process. Seems if I haven't made any chanages to the OS during a session, it doesn't need to check for changes. Turning that process off might speed things up.
