Correcting System Hang at Startup

If your system hangs about 2 or 3 minutes at startup, where you can't access the Start button or the Taskbar, it may be due to one specific service (Background Intelligent Transfer) running in the background. Microsoft put out a patch for this but
it didn't work for me. Here's what you do:

1. Click on Start/Run, type 'msconfig', then click 'OK'.
2. Go to the 'Services' tab, find the 'Background Intelligent Transfer' service, disable it, apply the changes & reboot.




Also if not on a network disable 'workstation' at the same place as above.


It could have something to do with dsl.
 
If you are not on a network, disable the Workstation service.
 
Hipster Doofus, those are the symptoms to the "T" tied what u said like yourself did not work..O.K just disabled workstation service and it worked..........THANKS guys for the help
 
You're welcome :)

HD - Workstation service is generally the most likely culprit. BITS is a little lower on the list..

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
