During XP boot up the PC pauses at "Applying Computer Settings" for over two minutes. What could be causing this slow boot up?

It's not a DNS issue, i've copied all network settings from another PC setup up the same.

bad install. could also be your startup folder has too many programs or certain startup program is taking too much of your resources during the startup process. in the run command type msconfig and go to the startup tab and see what you got going there. uncheck any uneeded programs. if that doesn't help..
run a system restore to previous point before you started experience these problems..
check your event viewer and that'll tell you if any devices, drivers, files or programs failed and what action to take..
if any of those don't help, it could possibly be a bad install and you would have to either repair the install or run a clean install...good luck, let us know what happens...

Try to use knowledge based article 329457. If you use a large amount of GPOs you can find this problem. I applied the fix but nothing changes. Let's open a sigle incident with Microsoft..

I've just started getting the same problem
Windows 2000 servers running SP4 and using AD
Clients are a mix of 2000 - sp4 and XPpro sp1
I've been running the servers afor about 2 years now and they have been absolutely fine, so has the whole network
Then I wen't on a MCP course and decided to put a bit of what i've learned into action
DFS, replication, group policy, permissions tweaking, auditing, quotas and such.
Now i have windows 2000 clients which run fine but windows XP pro clients which take 5 minutes when "Applying computer settings..." this only happens for the first login of the day. Subsequent logins that day go at normal speed
Its absolutely infuriating. I've wasted over a week trying to sort this problem out. I've undone all the configuration work i've done trying to backtrack. I've applied all the patches and SPs i can find but nothing seems to sort it out
I've done plenty of searches on the web for solutions and noticed that I'm not the only one having these troubles.
It also seems I'm not the only one without a solutuion.
