I have this issue on a windows 2000 machine. The computer connects over a WAN to another office. Consistantly, the computer gives server busy messages, and every time switch to is clicked, the start menu appears but the error message reappears and it gets stuck in a loop.

This problem does not appear in windows 98 and ME machines but only the windows 2000 machine.

The problem is most apparent when running quickbooks pro, but ti does happen at other times. IT usuallt takes hundreds of clicks on retry or switch to before it goes away for a little while.

Anyone have any ideas here? I'm about to just format the computer and run it on ME or 98.

Even over a 56k modem, I do not have problems with connectiing to the WAN and using anything. But the windows 200 machine is on a 1.5 Mbit DSL and it has the problem.

Thanks,
Alon

One other thing. The Wan Computer is an NT 4 server on a T3. and the win2k machine is pro not server. if anyone can help on this you will really save me a huge headache

Called intuit. The problem is the MRTNMgr.exe file which was corrupted. I removed the file fromt he winnt/system32 folder, and reinstalled quickbooks and the problem seems to have subsided.

Thanks for the attempt at helping. I ended up paying intuit for the support but they were able to get me back up and running within 20 minutes.
