XPOST: Fast boot, delay after 1st login if privileged action required

[Linus Schroeder]

Hi NG,

I use Vista 32 bit and have a strange behaviour. Perhaps someone knows
the reason?

System boot time to login is 30 sec. This is quite fast, I guess
(compared to XP which takes remarkable longer).

After login everything is working fine. Web and LAN access is available.

Only if I launch a program that requires privileged rights (full admin
access) like regedit or access to a restricted folder etc. it takes
exactly to 2 minutes after 1st login until this action is executed. If
this delay of 2 minutes after 1st login is over I can repeat the same
action and any other that requires privileged rights without any further
delay. Strange, isn't it?

Do others notice the same behaviour and is there a way around this?

BTW, machine is a Dell Latitude D400 with 1.5 GB RAM. It doesn't matter
if I use Vista Ultimate or another version. Occurs with English and
German versions, too.

Thank you all
Linus

I Have The Exact Same Problem!!!!! Very!!!!! Very!!!! Irritating!!!

Know one knows what "The Exact Same Problem" is since you are not posting on
a real forum as you think you are and you didn't quote any of the thread to
which you are replying. You are using a web interface that leeches Usenet
posts and most of the rest of us are using real newsreaders. We don't see
what you do. If you want to participate in Usenet, the better way is to set
up a newsreader. This is very easy to do and I'll give you information
about that below. If you prefer to use a forum, then here are two excellent
ones:

Since you are using a web interface, you may not realize that this is really
a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn to use
a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you can use
Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have it.
Here are some links to information about newsgroups:
