Shutdown takes 20-30 minutes?!??

I have no idea why, but each and every time I shut down my Vista PC it takes upto 30 minutes to shutdown - that's including just a reboot. Start up is about 2-3 minutes.
It has only once identified a problem, something to do with Yamaha Sound driver, can't even see that on my list!

Also, and apols if this should be a seperate post, somtimes my PC just loses internet connection, it says it's connected to my router (which continues working as I use it for xbox live), but IE or Firefox just won't find the internet.

Any ideas?
And thanks

A solution that often helps with a slow shutdown.

I did! I have only offered a suggestion which might help with an
overlong shutdown. The other problems are something else.
