title says most, No matter if I update Windows first, download update drivers from audigy (Nov 19 or 23, 2003), install only drivers or all programs, reboot seperatly after install, etc. I can't get it to stop hanging!

The hang: all is right, but then it comes to a black screen with blinking "_" in upper left corner for about a min or two, and then the blinking dash flashes over to the middle- lower right and stays there, for atlease 12 hours+ (I let it go overnight)

I know I should "Get rid of that god forsaken os" but I NEED it to play command and conquer red alert 2, plus the option to play command and conquer, and the first red alert (the only games that won't play on 2K and XP with my tri-boot machine), Thats all I wish to use it for, since I LOVE 2K and like but dislike XP.

And for more detail, If I restart the computer it does it fine, its only when I shutdown, so in other words I try shut down, then have to hit the reset button on the case, then wait till the bios screen starts, then hit the power button to power down, only to find the scan disk ready and awake when I boot back into me, very annoying. Oh, and by the way, can pci slot position have anything to do with it, works flawlessly in 2k and xp and sound works flawlessly everywhere, just wondering since I may have switched it from the 3rd pci slot to the 2nd pci slot (still pci #1 sitting blank do to agp share and agp heatsink/fan) to try to attempt to fix another problem that affects all os ( I have listed elsewhere here, Tv tuner problem)
