Logging Off

how long have you waited for it to log off? sometimes it's performing background operations i.e. updates or trying to close a program. hit the windows key and the r key at the same time and type eventvwr and press enter. look at your system events and application events and make sure that it's not having a problem closing a program. this could be what's causing the laptop to hang @ turn off.

How do I over ride the windows security center to switch it on? I keep getting 'Windows Security Center service can't be started'

You must find out why first.
read the system log (Dont have Vista)
run "Event Viewer" / "eventvwr.msc" then look in [System]

Look for Yellow or a Red icons

SUMP error in Windows Vista

Hi,


Try to increase the size of Event Logs files.

Open up Event Viewer by typing in eventvwr into the Start \ Run box, or you can find it under Administrative tools section of Control Panel.
You’ll notice over on the right-hand side of the window that the current size of my Application and System Event Logs are 512 KB…

Now you can right-click on one of the Event Logs in the list, and choose Properties from the menu.

In this dialog you can do a number of things… you could clear the log, increase the size, or just set the system to overwrite events as needed

chose to increase the maximum size of the event log, and then also to overwrite events as needed

For those of you using Windows Vista, you’ll notice that the default settings in Vista are to overwrite as needed, and the maximum size is way bigger. Guess my setting choices make sense then…
