windows XP Professional on our network, and when first
setup the computers connected to our network in about 8
to 14 Seconds. I did the first update on the web to
service pack 1a thursday 7/4/03 and the logon time jumped
85 to 90 seconds. I know it is looking for something but
I don't know what. We are still on a NT 4.0 Network, and
have a WAN connection to multiple sites. I am guessing it
is trying to find an active directory, or something.
Yesterday I noticed that the Service pack 1a was removed
and reverted back to sp1 on the update site. I thought
that it was having a problem and so I did a fresh install
and then installed SP1 and ended up with the same
symptom. I did an install with a corporate version of XP
Professional and then upgraded to SP1 from the web and It
did the same thing. I installed the compaq version back
on using the restore cd and used the SP1 cd that came
with the computer and It still worked fine. I then went
to the update site and installed the security fixes and
the computer then went back to 85 to 90 seconds to logon
to the NT 4.0 Network. Does anyone out there know what
is happening???????
I have two older EVO computers running XP Professional
that have been keeping up with the service packs and
patches and neither one of them is having this problem.
