The windows process igfxpers(.exe) generates errors whenever I try to shut
down my machine. (I may have misspelled it - igfexpers?)

I read on a potentially dubious site that it is a process related to an
Intel chipset or video support, and takes a large amount of system memory.
Does anyone know about this process or how to configure my PC so I do not
generate this error whenever I try to shut down my PC?

Thank you.

If it is the right name, then it is for Intel, but bear in mind malicious
software can name any thing including Legitimate system files.

Use Process monitors and displays file system activity on a system in
real-time.

Scan your system for malware and viruses.

There is always a log file in the Event Viewer created for each
Successful/or Unsuccessful Log, so open a run command and type in:
eventvwr.msc click [OK]
There you will see three Options/Folders:
Application
System
Security
By clicking on each and look in the Right Pane/Window you will see a report
Log Double click on the error Message (X) to get more info and you can copy
and paste in your next post.

Thank you, Nass and Gerry! Reinstalling the Intel video drivers (from, in my
case, the Dell site) has resolved the original problem.
