It is EVERY machine in the building, workstation to server AND server to server. DNS is MS standard issue, 2 DNS servers running on DC's with forwarders for external lookups, Active Dir intergrated, Single Zone, dynamic updates=secure only, no WINS. Each DC is pointing to the Primary DC/DNS server for primary DNS and looking to the second DC/DNSserver for secondary dns on the TCP/IP settings. DHCP same thing MS standard issue, nothing special, 1 scope, scope options include ( 003 Router, 006 DNS Servers, 015 DNS Domain NAme, 069SMTP server). One thing has come up, when I do a RSOP, unde CompConfig\AdminTemp\ExtraRegSettings I have several tha list the "State" as "unknown Data Format", would this have anything to do with it?

Hi again,
Is this all workstations connected to your servers? If so then we can eliminate the workstations as a problem and look toward the servers.
What's your DNS and DHCP configuration look like on your Server?
Cheers,

No new GPO's or change to any. No software distributions whatsoever. No Symantec products(thank God). The only thing I can think of as far as changes that have occured just prior to noticing this was a deletion of administrator's account that had been disabled for several months. That and a manually initiated scavange of stale resource records was performed to clean up DNS.

Greetings,
Did you recently create a new GPO or push out a new MSI? Typically long load times are either GPO MSI install or mainly DNS. Also if running Symantec Corporate ensure your licenses are still good (seen stale licenses cause load waits)
What was the last thing done before you noticed the problem?
Hopefully we can work this out,

No errors in any event log, none on the any of the DC's or Clients. Nslookup resolves anything and everytihng instantaneously from both the DC's and Clients

I have all Win2k3 servers with 3 domain controllers and Windows XP Pro SP2
running at the desktop. JUST recently all of the desktops are taking 2-3
minutes to load the desktop upon login. I have double checked all the DNS
settings and all appear to be ok per MS recommendations. There are no
strange startup programs and this happens to every desktop not a random
thing. Any ideas? No new updates have gone out either. Please help - my
phone is ringing off the hook with highly irritated end users.
