Ctrl Alt Del Takes 10-15 Seconds To Display Logon Box?
Oct 4, 2012
When one of my Exec's laptops boots to Windows 7, he presses CTRL ALT DEL and the screen does not return the login box until 15-20 seconds later. Then he can login fine.He is part of a special OU so he does not get the Windows Updates that the rest of our users receive.I took an image of his machine and dumped it to his idenitcal backup machine and the same behavior occurs. If you boot to safe mode w/networking, it DOES NOT behave that way and brings the logon box immediately.He uses the machine on our domain and when he takes it home on his personal network.He also has 1 mapped drive which resides on his home network, but I'm not sure if he experiences the same thing when he's docked @ home.If I login and then log out, the behavior doesn't happen. It only happens when I restart or boot from shutdown. This behavior also happens whether or not he's wired into the network or not.
I was going to try System Restore but since there are no restore points since this was a cloned image. I guess the restore points are on the small partition on his system?Troubleshooting So far.. * I have run C Cleaner and rebooted, no change* Disabled all startup items (msconfig), no change.* ipconfig /flushdns, reboot, no change* updated Intel network drivers, reboot, no change* tried the Windows 7 repair, but it failed* changing the desktop background from the picture to a solid color and back, no change.* checked gpedit.msc setting "Always wait for network at computer startup and logon� and it's not enabled.* changed MTU size of network* reinstalled NIC and WLAN cardDell Latitude 6320 4G RAMSamsung SSD 250GB Win 7 Enterprise

I can check Windows 7 64 bit to see what the problem is? I have Opera 12 installed on 2 other computers (one with Windows 7 64 bit and the other w/XP) and the browser opens within seconds. The delay is only happening on the wife's computer. I changed no settings on Opera when I installed the upgrade to 12 so I am guessing it is the PC that is causing the painful delay. I un-installed it twice, installed it once to her SSD and then again on her HDD and there was no change in the startup delay-it is driving me crazy.

I have a desktop machine that is connected to my work domain. Most days it works fine, but after the machine has been sitting idle for a couple days and I can't login. I hit Ctrl Alt Delete, then enter my username and password, but then it takes me back to the Ctrl Alt Delete page without any error messages.I can still access the C drive over the network but I just can't log on. I also tried using Remote Desktop from another machine but had no success.I think it's hardware related, because I have two identical machines and they are both behaving like this. However, all of the drivers have been updated, including the BIOS, and I've got all the latest Windows updates on there too.

Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
4 Gig RAM
Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 @ 2.8 GHz
NVIDIA board
I've been running this system just fine until recently when this problem with the right-click menu started. Actually, it is a problem specific to the "New" portion of the right-click menu in Windows Explorer. I can right-click a blank portion of an Explorer window and I get the usual instant pop-out menu; but, if I click "New", it takes a full ten seconds to respond. For ten seconds, it is as though I didn't click at all, then the "New" nested menu appears and everything works as normal. If I impatiently click several times in a row during that ten seconds (on "New"), everything grays for the rest of the ten seconds, then the Windows Desktop redraws completely and I have to start over again trying to use the "New" menu.

I've got a strange one here. I work for a small IT business that builds PC's for home consumer use. We have a standard computer build that we make and sell that performs fine. (Win 7 64 bit Pro,asus f1a55-m lx plus r2.0 mobo, AMD a8-5600k proc, Radeon HD 6000 onboard video).
We've built hundreds identical to this, but this morning I came across one that had a peculiar problem. Any time you go to change the monitor's resolution (on any monitor), the timer for it to revert back if it goes out of range is set at 7000 seconds (as opposed to the standard 30). I've never before come across something like this. I looked through every configuration setting known, and exhausted my google resources as well. I can't find anything at all on this subject.

I have seen this question asked, but none of them fit my problem. I am working with a laptop on the domain. Windows 7 Pro, 32 bit, new Lenovo laptop. When the computer starts up I get the log in screen, but ctrl-alt-delete will not work. I bring up the onscreen keyboard and I can push Ctrl-alt-delete and then log in as usual. Once I am in, I can run ctrl-alt-delete and it works fine. It is only at logon. I changed the ctrl-alt-delte settings and still nothing! I have spent way too long on this issue!

At this point i knew exactly what had gone wrong and had a major panic attack, i thought i had lost all my precious files, which i had no backup of. Then i remembered when i first got the computer i had to burn something called Acer eRecovery manager to 3 CDs. I then loaded the CD via the Boot Menu, and from there chose to restore my system but still retain user data (rather than restore to factory settings). the 2 and a half hour procedure, i found that all of my documents had been saved. I immedietly rushed to the store and bought a external hard drive and backed up all of my documents.
Now, moving on to the problem. Well it actually a very easy problem to describe. My new computer is now 50x slower than what it used to be, and im not even exaggerating. When i first got the Computer it loaded in 20 seconds, now it takes half an hour. Before this happened, when i used to click on internet explorer it came up instantly, now when i click on it it takes a minute or so. The problem is that i literally just bought this computer, and it cost me alot of money. It worked brilliantly fast when i first got it, now after this my old laptop is even better than it.[CODE]

when I login in a work to my domain, the login is quick. Logging in at home to the domain log in when not connected to the domain takes much longer. I disconnected mapped drives and that's not the problem.

This is on a fairly new HP G72 running Win7/64. A soft drink was spilled on the keyboard, system ran fine after cleaning it up, then performed a scan and found malware. Removed the malware, rebooted and system boots to user logon no problem. After you log in, the screen flashes white for several seconds, then goes black/white quickly and then all black: no cursor, no nothing. A few seconds later you hear the Windows startup song.Connect an external monitor and you see the desktop perfectly. System shows no problem with driver, all settings look good, system can see both an LCD screen and the external as disply devices. Use the Fn-F4 key to cycle througn video outputs and it goes blank-blank-external. Once you get past the logon screen in Normal mode the LCD goes blank but the external VGA works a treat!Boot into BIOS, let it run 15 minutes and never lose the display. Boot into the Recovery Console and let it set and poke around for 15 minutes and it never lose the display. Boot to Safe mode and poke around for 15 minutes and never lose the display. Boot to Normal mode and after you logon the screen goes black but with the external VGA working perfectly.
Uninstall the video drive (Intel HD), delete the driver on the system and boot into Normal mode: the LCD works perfectly, no problems other than 800x600 resolution and 256 colors. Install the latest & greatest video driver for the system from HP, reboot to Normal mode and the screen goes blank after logon but the VGA still works great. In frustration I do a destructive restore, taking the system back to new-out-of-the-box condition and still get the same problem.Only thing I haven't done yet is a HDD reformat and OS reinstall from recovery discs. Trying to avoid that so I don't lose the recovery partition. Don't know if this is a rootkit/bootkit problem but my next step is to try rebuilding the MBR and BCD. If that doesn't work all I can think of is reformat/reload.Doesn't all this look like a software problem? I want to think it's hardware (remember the soft drink spill) but if the LCD video works in BIOS, and works in Recovery Console, and works in Safe mode but *only* fails in Normal mode with both the OEM and latest drivers, doesn't that really point to the OS?

I am having trouble enabling this feature in Windows 7 Professional 32-bit. This setup is recommended by SquirrelSystems when installing Squirrel Professional 6.0 on a Windows 7 machineThe instructions from their techweb site follows...Quote: 1. Open the Windows Run command 2. Type: secpol.msc 3. Go to Security Setting/local Policies/ Security options4. On the right hand side find Interactive logon: do not display last username and change it to ENABLE The problem occurs after rebooting. I am no longer able to log in to the account in which I performed this step under. If there is a second account available I am able to log in fine but it seems the account in which I performed this step is now locked/corrupted.Changing the password via the Control Panel while logged in through my secondary account does nothing as well.

windows 7 x64 on my laptop (intel core i5 @ 2.50ghz, 4 gb ram) has recently started freezing for a few seconds every few seconds, when i'm doing just about anything: browsing the web, copying files, using text redactor, etc. only the mouse cursor responds, control is back after a couple of seconds.
* the behaviour remains the same when booting in the safe mode
* there are no cpu or memory usage peaks in process explorer
* there are no hardware conflicts in device manager
* there are no critical errors in system log
* there is no antivirus active
* hardware tests (memory, etc.) do not report any errors
i suspect this has started after i've updated all the drivers from manufacturer's site, but i am not 100% sure. anyway, i do not know which driver has caused this and i cannot easily restore to the previous state.

I have a month-old Dell Inspiron N7010 Core i5 460M with 6 gigs of ram running on Windows 7. Until recently, it has been starting up in about 75 seconds. However, out of nowhere, it suddenly began starting up in between 2 and a half minutes to 3 minutes. I am completely baffled, and I do not know what is wrong. Could it have been something I installed, or is it something that is beyond my knowledge. The last things I downloaded before the problems started were Starcraft II, Need for Speed World, and Microsoft Security Essentials, but I doubt one of those is the source of problem.

Every time I try to get administrative access, I type in the password and it says, "There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request." I'm able to sign in as the administrator, it's just when I need to gain administrative access that this error pops-up.

I would like to change the wording on the Windows 7 logon page from "PressCTRL+ALT+DELETE to unlock this computer" to "Press CTRL+ALT+INSERT to unlock this computer". My company uses a lot of VMware View desktops and it's tedious to continually inform users of the keystrokes. I have searched through the forums here and cannot find the file that I need to configure. I have downloaded Resource Hacker and love it but I just need the file name.

We have just been sent a free computer for our office. A Windows 7 HP 32bit.We can login locally i think to a local user KB_SUF/User (where KB_SUF is the name of the computer)however whenever the UAC comes up when installing anything, we cannot proceed because it keeps saying "There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request" The thing is they sent us the computer without removing it from the domain Now I cant install the programs i need to work and it doesnt seem like theres a local admin on this computer. I tried removing this computer from the domain but it requires going through UAC.Is there any way to make this computer a Local only PC?The company that sent us the computer is in another country and they say they can send someone over in 6 months which is longer than i can wait.

the display/monitor uses the generic driver for display and it is 1024×768 or 800x600 but it looks very odd it should be bigger because my screen is bigger. I have a acer monitor but is there something I can download to fix the display size?

Windows 7 64 turns off the monitor 1 signal after startup. At login, it powers off monitor 1 and powers on monitor 2. Windows 7 behaves as though dual display is working even though monitor 1 does not display. It's the same for single display, the monitor will not work on cable 1 except at startup.Both 'Extend these displays' in Windows Screen Resolution and 'Extend' in the Nvidia Control Panel is selected. And changing which one is primary does not turn on monitor 1. Nor does switching the position of display 1 in either (ex.left/right/top/bottom).GeForce 8400 GS; Dual Monitor Solution 59 pin (DMS-59) to 2 VGA adapter -tried two of these adapter cables.atest Driver: 306.23 - installed a clean reset install of the latest Nvidia driver released last week.Same Resolution: 2 of the 4 monitors I have tried have the exact same 'recommended' resolution (1280X 1024), both 60Hz, and even chose 16 bit color for both instead of 32 to reduce resources.
Linux worked: Dual display worked immediately when I tried it in Ubuntu 10. So, it's not the hardware. It works in Ubuntu 12 too but not properly -it won't transfer windows across displays. My Windows 7 64 is an upgrade from Vista 64. One person in another forum with the same problem resolved theirs by reinstalling Windows 7. But another got the same problem only after a fresh clean install of Windows 7 64 with the same GeForce 8400 GS and DMS-59 when it had previously worked in Vista.

Windows 7 32bit new install of 2 weeks. No changes that I can think of prior to the login problem. Windows boots to Ctrl Alt Del and when that is entered a Cancel button appears on the screen. when the cancel button is pressed the Ctrl Alt Del is back. I have tried the follow to fix the login issue. Remote Registry connection to create a AutoLogon by adding (DefaultName/Password/Domain) etc. That registry hack worked in that the Ctrl Alt Del window no longer came up but it then went directly to the Cancel button. Next I tried doing a restore to an earlier date by booting from a Win7 DVD. Results were NO Change. Then I tried doing a boot repair booting from the Win7 DVD. (and as the problem isn't with the boot, it is with the logon there was NO Change)

yesterday i turned off computer and everything was working perfectly. today i turned it on and i cant login to my user account and theres only 1 user (me). my password has 2 @@'s and the ctrl and alt were disabled i think because i also tried using the onscreen keyboard and cant make the symbols either. my keyboard is portuguese and uses alt + ctrl+2 to make these symbols. I CANT LOGIN TO MY COMPUTER! (not this 1).
Remember i already tried the Onscreen keyboard! ctrl and alt doesnt work either

Not sure if i am in the right area to ask this but wanted to see if the below is possible:We are working in a large business that has the good old 'Ctrl Alt Del' option enabled (like most) - so for anyone to log into the computer (whatever OS) it prompts for a username/passwordI wanted to see if we can add a link onto the screen (dialog box) - Basically if a user has forgotten their password - instead of calling the Helpdesk of that company - they could click this link and it would take you to a internal page (that the company has setup to reset/go through the steps of resetting their password)

is it possible to edit Ctrl+Alt+Del screen "links" and its position?
I would like to add for example "Shut down", "Restart" instead of "Lock this computer", "Switch user", and would like to move it to the right:
MS paint preview
If that is impossible, then maybe it is possible to get rid of Ctrl+Alt+Del screen at all and instead of it, like in windows xp, would appear task manager?
