I would suggest, as a first step, to have a look on what kind of errors and/or warnings you get in the System event log when you try to shut down your laptop while it is attached to the docking station. This could shed up some light on what is going on causing the error message you get.
If this did not help you solve the problem, feel free to drop me a note, & I will see what we could do towards resolving your problem. Thanks.

This is a power management feature relating to the wireless. I have no idea why it's activated in your laptop, it's practically obsolete. Do a search for the exe and find out where (in what program's folder) it's located and uninstall the corresponding program.
