Windows Management is continually not responding.

I don't know why but a few days after I received my computer my windows management program started "not responding". I wouldn't have noticed this except for the fact that I can not shutdown the computer without having the system first detect it's non-responsiveness and ask me what I want to do. It's becoming a big pain since even a restart does not clear up the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Check your startup group.

    Start > Run >Type MSCONFIG > hit OK

    Click the Startup tab > uncheck all exept items below.

    These are the items you really need.
    ScanRegistry
    SystemTray
    LoadPowerProfile.
    PCHealth
    *StateMgr


    Then Apply and Ok. This will prompt for a reboot.

    See if after the reboot it has the same issue. Do the reverse to get all the items back. I would check each item one by one to isolate the issue.


    Items in the background sometimes don't respond to shutdown or restart.
