I have a Compaq E500 docked to an Armada EM workstation running Windows 98SE and connecting to a Novell and NT Domain.
the laptop experiences an extreme slow boot when docked but when removed from the docking station it boots up fine...any ideas?

What speed is the LAN connection into the Docking station. I have seen PC's with 100 Megabit cards boot extremely slow when it is plugged into a 10 megabit hub. That is the only thing I can think of.

Do you have another docking station? Compaq MEU's (mobile expansion units), have been known to go bad. Has it ever worked properly? How old isthe computer/MEU (if it's under warranty, I recommend calling Compaq and get a replacement cross-shipped).
