When logging off windows get to the 'saving your settings' screen and just appears to sit there for ages doing nothing. . after about a minute it completes the operation and shows the log-on screen as normal.

The event log states:
Source: Userenv
Event ID: 1000
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Windows cannot unload your registry file. If you have a roaming profile, your settings are not replicated. Contact your administrator.
DETAIL - Access is denied. , Build number ((2195)).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
how do i grant permissions to the system to allow a normal speed shutdown? Failing that, is there any way to reduce the timeout period for windows to save its settings? (I don;t mind filling the event log with alerts as i clean it out once per session anyway).

For windows 2000 this is how you would decrease the time of shutdown:
Regedt32.exe) and locate the following Registry subkey in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control
On the Edit menu, click Add Value
Enter the following:
Value Name: WaitToKillServiceTimeout
Data Type: REG_SZ
String:<In milli-seconds; default is 20,000> NOTE : Try not to increase the shut-down time too much, but you can decrease it if you don't care about it saving settings.

Still running IE5 and/or win2k pre-sp1? If so...
