I had many probs. [freezes, etc.] in beginning, but most have worked themselves out. Now occasionally have shut down prob. Everything fine until screen goes mostly dark, but no "message" & computer does not shut down - have to press Start button. Also what is "Rnaap has caused an error in KERNEL 32.DLL"? It's appeared 3x in last few months.

i too have to press the start button to shut down on occasions. Nothing really to worry about. Make sure you use your system tools and defrag regularly. Re Kernel 32 - use the 'search site' which has lots of info. I had this problem. You might also try downloading Microsoft Windows Kernel core components. Good luck....
