Also, check for mapped drives that are not loading and/or shared
drives/folders that are configured for offline use but may be having trouble
loading.
In addition,
Client Side Processing

gpedit.msc on the WinXP workstation
-----------------------------------
Configuring Synchronous Processing
Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 Server computers process foreground policy
synchronously by default. Windows XP processes foreground policy
asynchronously by default. In order to enable synchronous processing (at
startup/logon) on Windows XP, you must ensure that the following policy is
enabled (and disabled/not configured on Windows 2000/2003):
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Logon\
"Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon"
This setting ensures that policy completes before the startup/logon is
completed. The change to the default setting on Windows XP was designed to
speed up startup and logon processing. However, when performing
configurations that must take effect before the end-user has access to
his/her desktop, synchronous processing must be enabled.

There's not a lot to go on here. I'd start by checking the event logs on
the PC for errors. If you don't find anything relevant, I'd look in Task
Manager to see if anything is using excessive system resources - maybe a
program with a memory leak, or something that's using excess CPU for some
reason. Start -> Run -> MSconfig - look at the startup programs and see
if anything is auto-starting that should not be. Check for free space and
make sure the system has sufficient RAM. Delete old temp files and defrag
the hard drive.
Another thing you could try is to create a new user profile for a
different user on that PC, and see how the experience compares when using
the new profile. Also, try to run some comparison tests to see if a large
file or folder will copy to that PC at about the same rate it does to a
different one. If the PC in question is having network issues, you could
make sure the NIC driver is current and run the NIC diagnostic app if
there is one.
I'd check the server event logs just in case, but if it's only one PC, I
doubt the server is involved.
Does Outlook performance seem normal other than when attempting to attach
files over the network?

Hi,
I have a client and one of the PCs can take 10 plus mins to login with
the above message (SBS2003 std R1). This user also has issues attaching
files from the network to email messages. I copied a few of the files
from the server to her desktop and this worked fine and attaching them in
outlook was ok as well. I've tried disabling the email scanning part of
the AV (Kaspersky) and this didn't help.
Any ideas on what to check ?
Thanks
Simon
