does a dump, it may be the graphics driver??

Abit BX6 r2 with QR bios
(ACPI enabled or disabled does not matter)
p3 800mhz
144 megs ram
adaptec 2940u2w SCSI card (newest bios and w2k driver)
Creative GeForce 2gts (6.49 drivers)<problem?
IDE Creative CD-RW
pioneer SCSI 5xDVD
4.5 U2W SCSI Cheetah drive
9.1 LVD SCSI Cheetah drive
hercules game theater XP sound (got this after the problem though)
 
any thoughts?

Thanks for the tip, but I don't seem to have Quicken or any Quicken related programs on my system, could this be some other download manager or something else I am looking over, possibly software I installed???

After a re-install of Win2k, I think it was a set of reference 6.49 drivers that I got from Zoiah's page that was causing my shutdown probs, I went with the newest WHQL tested drivers and now, no more shutdown problems.
