Event ID 1053, 1030 and 1085. Connection problems

I have a connection problem.
Every 10 or 15 minutes Windows (WindowsXP prof SP2, up to date) can't
connect with the DC (Server 2003 ent SP1, up to date) anymore. I get no ping
reply from the server for several minutes. This means that all programs that
need a server to work (for example Outlook. Even RIS takes longer then
normal) stops working. This is very annoying.

Log on to WindowsXP takes up to 5 minutes to fully load. It hangs on the
logon screen.
I reinstalled both my computer and the server, but the problem remains.

I get the following errors on my computer:

People say that this is a DNS problem, but I can’t find the appropriate
knowledge base article and I compared my DNS settings with another server.
I have to add that I have a gigabyte network (Network cards all have the
latest drivers) and found a couple of articles in the knowledge base already

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326152/en-us
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908370/en-us
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325487/en-us

None of them work or point me to the right direction.

I hope I’ve been clear enough and somebody understand what my problem is.

Please help...

Have you looked in the server Event Viewer? Do you have any erors there?
Very short about DNS: your clients should point to the DNS server that holds
you domain zone (most probably the DC itself - NOT the ISP DNS). And the
same for the DC - if it's holding that zone it should point to itself (and
then set up forwarders for external name resolution).

Andrei,

Thanks for reading my post.

Yes, I looked in the server event log. No errors there.

And the clients point to the DC (DC=DNS server).
Primary DNS is the DC
Secondary is an outside ISP DNS (else my internet won't work everytime the
connection is lost).

Robert,

Thanks for reading my post.

The event ID really is 1085 (I checked it twice) not 1058

You should not outside ISP DNS as Secondary DNS.

Sorry for the late response..

I know that using an outside DNS is not the best way to solve this problem,
But like i said earlier everytime my computer losses it's connection with the
server the internet won't work anymore. (Belief me this happens every 5/10
minutes. Very annoying).

But DNS couldn't be the problem. I think it has something to do with the
Network(cards)
I have a gigabit network and i found a article about this

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326152/en-us

I already disabled media sense on all my pc's and also on the server, but
the problem remains. I have downgraded the networkcards to 100 Mb Full duplex
(also tried half duplex). Still nothing...I did solve the problem once, but
after reinstalling the server the problem came back. Now I can't find the
right article anymore...

Can somebody help me?
