    What is it, and why does it hang my PC when I shut down?

    Hi Jorden
    DDHelpWndClass is the Direct Draw helper,although i don't know its exact function! But how do you know that it is hanging your system??
    Cheers

      Because it says so with a box when I try to shut my PC down. Then I get a little box saying DDHelpWndClass (This program is not reacting, maybe it's waiting for something etc.), Wait, End Task, Cancel.

      I have to press End Task a couple of times to let my PC shut down. Running Windows ME here, with DX7.1

          No Jason, I didn't. I'm using the DirectX version that came with WinME.

          Every game that I installed lately and that asks for DX installation, I tell it to not install DX.

          I've thought about reinstalling WinME, but haven't found time yet to do so. If there's another option to get rid of this strange error, I'd be happy to try it

          It only happens when I close down my PC, I have to press End Task on that box 1 to 3 times before it starts closing down, then I don't see the "Windows is closing down" screen (my monitor goes off way before my PC goes off), and in the end my PC powers down normally.
