Re: win2k slow



Only one user (at a time) can logon to a workstation version operating
system. Check Event Viewer for errors. Check Device Manager for error codes
and or non-starting devices. You can use Task Manager and or Performance
Monitor to see what is consuming the mem/ cpu. A consistently positive "Mem
Delta" value may indicates a memory leak.
