SYMPTOMS
After you install Norton CrashGuard 4.0 or 4.01 for Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98, or Microsoft Windows NT on your Windows 2000-based computer, the following error message may be displayed when you shut down or restart your computer:

STOP 0x0000009f Driver_Power_State_Failure

CAUSE
This behavior is caused by the Symevent.sys file from Norton CrashGuard. This can also occur after using the Live Update feature of Norton CrashGuard to upgrade to version 4.01.

RESOLUTION
To prevent this behavior from occurring, obtain the updated version of the Sevinst.exe file (version 10.2.13.4, dated 04/29/1999, or later) from Symantec.
