I second this. I have a similar Win98SE box myself (with a K6-II 500MHz instead of a K6-III 450MHz). Every once in a while, it would not shutdown/restart properly and would just hang there, until I hit the power/reset button manually.
My Win98SE machine often hangs at shutdown when I've been running a resource (memory)-intensive game for more than 4 hours. However, sometimes it shuts down properly, especially if I let it run a bit after closing the game.
