When I try to shut down my compurter, Windows 98, it hangs up and I
get a blue screen error that says an exception OE has occurred at
0028:00000009 in VXD --- This was called from 0028:C001C0D4 in VXD
NDIS (01) + 00004620. It may be able to proceed normally.
Any suggestions?
You probably have buggy video drivers. Check the site for your video board
manufacturer. Meanwhile you can do the following:
1. Use the default mouse pointers.
2. Turn down your color depth. (Right click the desktop and choose
Properties | Appearance | Settings) Some people find that increasing color
depth helps.
3. Turn down your graphics hardware acceleration. (For Win 98, Start |
Settings | Control Panel | System | Performance | Graphics button) You will
see little, if any, performance degradation.
4. Turn off your desktop wallpaper.
If these make the problem go away you need new video drivers.
If you have an ATI video board, try adding these lines to System.ini

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.
If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
