My office machine has starting to take long time to boot up. I don't know whether I did something wrong because till last week it was working like a charm.
I am running windows XP connected with domain on Windows 2003 server.

Anyone else notice XP slowing down more and more in general since Vista came out? My friends and i jokingly refer to it as MS's "'Upgrade to Vista' patch". :) – cHao May 26 '10 at 3:48

That's a pretty big assumption that the domain server is also running DNS, isn't it? – ceejayoz May 26 '10 at 4:40
No, it's a pretty reasonable assumption. – ta.speot.is May 26 '10 at 6:48
