   Do you have a particular reason for having two NICs enabled (presumably
in the same IP subnet)? This will cause no end of problems with the browser
service. I would also disable RRAS unless you have a particular reason to
use it (ie either routing or remote access). It will do nothing but cause
problems with two NICs in the same subnet.
