Hi,

I´ve made a migration using the ADMT tool from Microsoft, but i´m having a
problem with the machines that run win XP. When starting, the computer takes
up to 4 min "applying computer settings", and internet browsing is also very
slow (the clients are connected trough ISA 2004), it takes up to 1 min to
show the first page.
The DHCP is well configured, as well the DNS. The event viewer doesn´t say
nothing regarding to the problem.

How can i solve teh problem?

Thanks,
 
it could be the DNS issue. quoted from http://howtonetworking.com.

Why is XP running slower while logon 1

When I login into a Windows 2000 active directory from a new xp pro machine the login in is extremely slow. After logged on, everything works fine. But other windows versions don't have this problem.
A: This is almost like name resolution issue. Comparing with previous versions, XP is heavily dependent on DNS to find DC. If the DNS is configured incorrectly, XP will take longer time waiting for it to timeout before it tries using NetBIOS. Make sure
1) The DNS setup correct and have the server information.
2) XP clients can find the DNS server.
3) XP machine's DNS server is pointed to your internal DNS server rather than your ISP's DNS server.
4) Make sure no errors on logon scripts or GPO's that could be causing the delay.
5) Check any errors on event viewer.
6) Disable NetBIOS on the interfaces that client will not use.

Hi,

OK, it was a problem with an anti-virus, but the internet on the XP systems
trough ISA2004 still very slow opening web pages, and there´s no error in
event viewer. How can I solve this question?
