location: microsoft.com - date: January 2, 2013
I have recently purchased an HP Pavilion G6 series laptop with Windows 8. The fact is that I am having some issues with my new laptop. While watching any video it sometimes freezes. Even the touchpad stops responding momentarily. On the other hand when I use the shut down option in Windows 8 it shuts down and the display turns off but the power button light and hard disk light remains on with the fans on.

Windows wont shutdown always proberly, error with DWM.exe.
location: 7forums.com - date: January 18, 2012
Hello everyone! Firstly i wanna apologize my very bad english spelling skills and say that i´m new to this forum. My problem started about month ago, very often when i try to shutdown or reboot my windows suddenly everything gets blurry on my desktop and nothing happens. I can move mouse and use keyboard, but it only reacts to ctrl+alt+del and when i press that combination it goes to that "login" screen. If i try to shut it down from there, screen just goes black and nothing happens. Luckily today when i pressed ctrl+alt+del it also popped up this error message: dwm.exe - Application Error : The instruction at 0x690043f0 referenced memory at 0x690043f0. The memory could not be written. Click on OK to terminate the p

Intervening in Windows 8 shutdown/restart if it's slow?
location: microsoft.com - date: May 6, 2013
Scenario: I find some processes and devices take considerable time to shut down.  Speculatively, I think because some processes might hold handles open or do a lot of closure activity after a "close" signal, or perhaps open handles prevent shutdown of removable storage.  (Outlook is - or was - notorious for taking ages to shutdown, many users anecdotally find themselves themselves forced to kill it from Task Manager eventually rather than wait the 10 - 20 mins it can take to end its task.)   Windows 7 behaviour worked nicely: Under Windows 7, shutdown or restart displayed a list of processes which were awaiting termination.  I could cancel the shutdown/restart if I noticed an issue needing human attention, or te

windows 8 shutdown problem
location: microsoft.com - date: November 2, 2012
I have been running the RTM version Windows 8 x64 since its release and have recently been unable to shut down my PC. When I select shut down or restart through the user interface, the process wininit.exe hangs and the computer remains on. Shutting down using the command line "shutdown.exe /s /t 00" avoids the problem but is not really a satisfactory solution as it terminates all running threads without the ability to save data or state information. I would be very grateful if someone could help me to diagnose the cause of this problem.

Files that are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions
location: microsoft.com - date: July 17, 2011
I keep getting this window popping up that reads, "Files that are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions.  To maintain system stability, Windows must restore the original versions of these files.  Insert your Windows XP Professional CD2 now."  The problem is, I'm not running XP Professional.  I'm running XP Media Edition (not sure which version -- when I look at "System" in the Control panel it says version 2002, but the OS disk that came with my computer says version 2005 with update rollup 2).  In any case, I only have one installation disk, and when I insert it, the computer tells me it's the wrong disk.  What do I do?
