New Question
I would normally have agreed with Ben, but I find it hard to believe that the DCHP would give only the one user a bad address. Also, the next time a user logged in, the IP address could change and problem would go away.

It sounds more like he might have a static IP address in his settings while everyone else is using DCHP and that his static addess is conflicting with another computer.

New We are forgetting what DynamicDNS/DHCP have as a...
symbionic relationship...

If it does get replicated to another machine... nearly cinches it.

If it don't, might be a Video setting of his... I know, that alot of slow-downs in the past have been mostly reated to a bogus video setting, or an "Over-Clockers" kind for the Video cards...

That is where I'd start... maybe downgrade the video-card driver or maybe even Update it. Might take care of it, but it might be tied to his profile worse then that.

Also, try and make a "new user" with a copy of his local profile... see if that problem migrates also. Worth a shot.

Does it does this with Remote Desktop too?

New Doubt video but he made a new user entry.
I doubt the video because if someone else logs in on his machine, there is no problem. He says he compared settings with another machine that does not have the problem.
If he logs in on the other machine he has the same problem.
He created a new user for access only to his machine and this does not demonstrate the problem.
I wasn't even aware that win2k had a Remote Desktop feature.
It is sounding like this is being inflicted upon him by our IT people. Sucks to be him...

Thanks,
Hugh

New Sounds like a Roaming Profile issue.
It keeps following him...

Therefore it's has GOT to be in his roaming profile. Which inturn would also spark the DDNS/DHCP thing too...

Either way it is tied to the Profile.
