Hi I have a user that designs publications and does a lot of desktop publishing with a windows 7 computer with Dual Portrait Format Monitors. When she uses other than 96 dpi (display 100%) and switches display to Medium 125%. The startup and shut down of her computer is really slow. The difference sometimes is a 20 second shutdown with 96 dpi to a 2 minute 30 seconds shutdown with the medium dpi setting. Once the settings are dialed back down the machine seems to boot up and shut down a lot more quickly. We've already ensured that hotfix Fix297656 has been installed. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/977419 Has anybody seen this annoying behavior? Other than setting the DPI to 96, did anybody find a resolution? Thanks, Lee Duynslager
