Hanging Explorer Service Pack 2

[Guest Appie1981]

Hi,

 

I have the following problem:

 

When i install Service Pack 2 on a Windows 2003 Standard Terminal Server

browsing on it gets really slow. Sometimes the explorer hangs for about a

minute while other times everything seems normal.

If i uninstall SP2 everything works normal again.

 

I've tested this problem on a HP DL380G3 and 2 SunFireX 2100 servers. The

load of the servers is low, the cpu usage is most of the time around 2% and

the RAM Usage is around 300Megs. The servers have 4GB RAM.

 

Is there anyone who is familiar with this problem?

 

With kind regards,

Any warnings or errors in the EventLog on the server?

Does this happen inside TS sessions only, or even when you are

logged on to the physical console of the server?

Hello Vera,

 

Thank you for your reaction. There are no warnings at all in the eventlog.

When i'm logged on to the server physical the problem occurs also sometimes.

It seems that the problem occurs more when i'm logged on via Remote Desktop.

So i don't know for sure that the problem is a Terminal Server issue.

I Haven't had the change to install a Windows 2003 Standard server to test

it with.

I was hoping that someone would recognize the problem and gave me a link to

a patch, appearantly the problem is a bit more complicated.

 

Best regards,

Re: Hanging Explorer Service Pack 2

 

I assume that this happens when you browse your local network?

I would perform a Network Monitor trace while browsing to a network

share, to see if any strange packets are being transmitted.
