Hello, when trying to shut off my computer the regular way, the following popup appears:

"End Program-SysFader
This program is not responding.
If you choose to end it immediately, you'll lose unsaved data.
To end the program now, click "End Now'."

Of course I clicked on End Now and nothing happened, tried several times and nothing! After trying this merry-go-round 8 times!!! I shut it off from the tower but...SURPRISE! It won't shut off from the tower either. I had to unplug the computer for the night... and going through the same routine each night...

These popups never identify themselves, as a result, I don't know for sure whether it's a Windows or some other program?

If anyone could help solve this mystery I'll be so grateful! Thanks ever so much! Adela

P.S. Someone said: "The sysfader.exe file is related to the NVidia Graphics, and also may be related to a function in the Windows Explorer shell for having your menu items fade in and out, but don't know for sure." But I do not have the NVidia program at all!
