Applying Computer Settings Hangup - Windows XP SP2

[kyosang]

I am running 2 Windows XP machines with SP2 on a Microsoft Server 2003 domain who are facing some slow boot time. At the time of applying computer settings, the computers stall for 10 minutes or so and on the event log I am getting the below information:

Event Type: Information

Event Category: None

Does anyone know how to solve this issue? Thanks

You could have some major issues, and the GPO might be failing too. I would recommend you to try the below solution, given in the link, for both the machines.

Thanks for the reply. So, after running the SubInACL tool, it didnt fix the issue. And I am getting some different error mesage in the event viewer that you can check below:

Event Type: Error

So, I found out that it was a program called Fleet Director, that had been upgraded. Thank you for taking your time and letting me know about the GPO on AD ad onto applications and the registry.
