Log in XP machine hangs when cable plugged in
Dear experts,
Have a problem with one of my XP machine.
If I log in with the network cable plugged in it always hangs in the "Applying settings" screen. If I log in without the cable I can log in straightaway.
When I logged in without the cable, I can then plug the cable in after I see my desktop and I got 1Gb connection.
Surely there is something no right with my NIC but what is it? Any help would be appriciated.

Can you please check i n Device Manager to see if the card has any issues (look for a question mark)
Domain system? Non Domain system?

Yes domain. Nothing showing in Device manager.

At the end we replace the network card and things are working again.
There is no problem/warning shown in Device Manager, so we didn't think it was the NIC. There is no DNS problem as computer is getting IP from DHCP.
Still don't know why but no point investigating if replacing the NIC resolves the issue. Thanks for all your input.
