computer shut down

[grandfatherd]

I have an ASUS computer wich is new this year. I have also Windows 7 on it, I find that every thing is very good when using except on shutting down it takes over 4 miutes to close.I presume this will have something to do with software being closed, but I have tried shutting down the cumputer imediatly after booting up.
No.1 Is this any thing to worry about?

No. 2 If so is there anything I can do about it?

You will find this is usually a hardware driver issue. They hang when trying to shutdown PC/Laptop.
Graphics, Audio Card and Network drivers are famous for giving this sort of problem. Check for updates on those devices before you do anything else.

PS ..

1. NO ... Just annoyance factor.
