PC thinks it is the master browser for domain

Asked by GStoner in Microsoft Windows Operating Systems, Windows XP Operating System, Windows 2003 Server

Tags: Microsoft, XP, SP2, The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer NAMEDLAPTOP that believes that it is the master browser for the domain on transport NetBT_Tcpip_{6C64F537-ACE.

We have a laptop running xp sp2 that for some reason believes it should be the master broswer for the domain.   On the domain controller (win2k3 server) i get errors in the system log saying that laptop is trying to become the master browser and that an election will be forced.  I removed the laptop from the domain and readded it but that only helped for about a day.  the laptop has all the current updates installed.  What can i do to get it to stop trying to force a master browswer election.
