Startup and shutdown issue

[Dick]

When shutting down(specifically to "shut Down") that
system recycles requiring manual shut off at the start of
recycle to turn the computer off.
Once restarted I receive an error message"msdtc.exe" has
generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will
need to restart the program. If you click OK the programs
seem to run normally. I cannot find the file msdtc.exe
anyware. I am looking for suggections to correct the
problem. How do I correct these errors of operation?

or get their ultimate troubleshooter program - you won't regret it.

BUT, BUT - it is rare to have problems with MSDTC, so the problem may
be with a different app (hence The Ultimate Troubleshooter
recommendation I've made), or, possibly a virus. A full virus scan in
Safe Mode with an up-to-date reputable antivirus product is in order,
just to eliminate that as a possibility. If that brings up nothing,
then check your tasks with either the site above, or its product, as
mentioned.
