   What does "XP is slow resolving NETBIOS shares" mean?  My guess is =
that you mean SMB not NetBIOS.  Still, the client waits for the server.  =
Do you mean that you snap servers are slow?  Have you done a network =
capture to diagnose it?

   Someone, and Robert claims it wasn't him, said that the problem he is =
having is that icons remain on the screen but clicking on them does =
nothing.  That is the symptom that sounds like a display driver problem.
