Losing The Network Shares Some Time After Login ?
Jul 27, 2005
I have Windows XP Home system that shares a folder and 2 printers with 2 other XP Home systems and 1 XP Pro system.All 4 computers are in the same workgroup Somewhere between 10 and 30 minutes after startup the XP Pro system loses the ability to browse the local network and loses contact with the shared folder and the printers. The share and the printers are still visible and useable to the other systems on the network

Anyone else having issues with their network shares after winxp update? I didn't upgrade to SP3 because this upgrade had caused a problem for me also. Just did a few security fixes.. Is there a way to fix this without having to uninstall all the patches?

It retains the password and I can go online also can receive and send email messages. I deleted my orginal internet connection and set up a new one but the login box still keeps reappearing all the time. I have run scans for viruses, trojans etc.

I have a file server (Win2K Server) and two Win XP Pro PCs connected to it. I never turn the PCs off, just the monitors at night. Most every morning, after all night of no activity, when I try to access the domain drives, it cannot find them. I have to reboot. Also, when I do reboot, it takes anywhere from 3-5 minutes to come to the desktop after typing in the password. I am about ready to go back to Win2K. Never had this problem Win2K Pro.

I've been doing some extensive searching for a solution to this since it turned up last night.I run Windows XP pro connected to a SBS 2003 server, which has been running fine for the last three months. However, my PC bluescreened last night, forcing me to restart - unfortunately, the size of the screen and resolutions meant I could not actually read most of the exception. When I reboot, it loads normally, goes through the network connections and comes up with the 'Press CTRL ALT DEL to Login' screen. I press it and the screen just refreshes.

I have a Windows XP Pro computer at work. When I start the machine, I normally login to our work domain thru the "Ctrl+Alt+Del" login dialog. The company domain is selected by default or you can select the local computer. The company domain is controlled by a server running Small Business Server 2003.This computer is now going to be used at home for personnal use. How do I get rid of that "business" login and get back to the normal XP login? Normal XP login being the screen with the list of users and their associated icons.

I took the laptop home and tried to set it up on my home network. It had mapped network drives and the login still came up under the company domain. In the System settings, I changed it from being a "Computer primarily used in an office or work environment" to a "Computer primarily used in a home office environment". Now when it starts up, the domain is gone and I can't log in to the computer. It was under his work username and password, and it NO LONGER ACCEPTS THE PASSWORD because it is no longer logging in under a domain!

What's this login box that is popping up now? I've never had this before and I've seen it on a couple of computers now.A login box pops up in the middle of anything - nice Windows colors with two keys in upper left.. asking for password and login "connecting to sc.msn.com"? Where the heck is this coming from?

Our domain is having problems all of a sudden. Windows Installer for MS Office 2000 is trying to install something but the installer has gets access denied at the share where originally installed from. No changes to the system have been made except leaving on auto-updates on our XP machines. Users can freely access the share, yet Windows Installer gets access denied. What gives? Has there been a recent update to Windows Installer that is causing grief on Server 2003 + XP domains. Have not installed 2003 Server SP1 patch yet even.

Have only tried this on XP Pro but it works great. Decreased my login time from 2mins to 15secs. Increased my network speed (ex. 170MB file took 15-20min. Now the same 170MB file takes less than 2mins). WOW!Here it is... Go into your network properties and then into your TCP/IP settings. Add your Server's IP address as Prefered DNS Server. Then select you Advanced button, go into your WINS tab and insert your Server's IP address for your WINS address as well. Reboot the system and you SHOULD see a difference. I have already tried this on several systems and have seen the same increase in speed

some relatives of mine have a decent enough computer with not that much stuff on it (its better than my PC1). anyhow they've asked my to try and speed up their boot time because it takes yonks to reach the log in screen and it really shouldn't. so im going to have a thorough clean of msconfig, im going to use "ntregopt" and i might even use ATF cleaner.anything else i can use to speed it up?

Why does XP create a network connection & a seperate internet connection to the host when the network connection carries all protocols? Can I delete the internet connection or does it have some special purpose?

Im on a network with a domain controller using dhcp, my computer runs on windows xp. When I booting up and Im connected to the network with my lan connection it boots up in no time, but when Im not on the domain using the machine at home it takes about 5 min to boot up. Why would this be and can I do something to fix it? I should add that my laptop that I had before had the same software and settings but did not take 5 min to boot up when not on the network.

I have two computers running WinXP; the others run Win2K. When I attempt to see the file system in Explorer of one of the WinXP machines by clicking on "Computers Near Me"/Computer Name, it takes about a minute for the list of logical hard disks to appear. This is true no matter which of the other computers this one is accessed from. No other computer behaves like this. When I click on another computer name in Explorer, the list of hard disks appears almost instantaneously. Moreover, only one installation of WinXP behaves like this -- the one with a clean install of WinXP; the WinXP installation that is an upgrade of Win2K displays its logical hard disks very quickly. Once the list of logical disks appears, clicking on one entry produces a list of the folders in the root directory almost instantaneously.

What happened is I just installed a new Hard Drive and a fresh windows install (XP Pro with Service pack 3). After all was installed it logged into my account (Me) which was my account with Administrator privileges. I did a series of windows updates now when I turn my computer on it goes straight to the Administrator account and not my account (me). So I have to log off or switch accounts from Admin to Me. I just want it to login to Me all the time. So I am not smart enough to figure it out.

I'm using Win XP sp2 and I usually leave my computer on 24/7. This morning I tried to open a file but it never opened. I went into the task manager to see if its even processing and it was there but the ccapp was taking all the cpu. So i tried to shutdown and restart. After that windows boots up to the login screen just fine but when i click on my account it take a long time to show my wallpaper. I can pull up task manager and the cpu isnt being used. the hdd is only accessed in little bursts. After a while the start menu pops up. any keyboard commands like to bring up win explorer takes a long time and all the commands pop up in a big burp of of command executions. I'm trying to reach system restore but cant. I'm not sure how to get into safemode with this system because just after post when f8 is usually used to bring up the menu the system opens a boot drive selection screen. During the RAM tests during post theres text stating press del to enter bios and f8 to enter boot drive selection so im not sure how to get to safemode now.
