Win2k Upgrade over NT - very very very slow
Welp, Im almost at the end of my short rope over this one..
So far, this has happened to two PC's. Both were running Windows NT 4.0, SP6, IE 5.5..etc..etc.. very standard PC's. They are IBM Netvista's, using recommended hardware, and up until now, have behaved themselves perfectly. Until we decided to upgrade to Windows 2000. We ran the upgrade, during which, systems files were not backed up, and we converted the drives to NTFS, and the installation completed with out any issues.
All looks happy, until we restart the PC, and go to login. After logging in, there is a good 10 to 15 minute wait, before you are able to do anything. The start bar does not respond in this time, and the only way to run anything, is through task manager > new task.
I have (after painfully waiting) updated the system device drivers, and installed the latest Service Pack.
Has anyone seen something like this before? Any advice?
Cheers all.
