Hi
I know there are countless start-up utilities that can identify what programs are starting up when windows is booted up. My question is how I monitor the progress of a program that is either hanging waiting for a response or is executing correctly but taking a long time to do so. Is there a way to show when a process is starting and completing, CPU usage etc that could indicate an unresponsive application or process during the logon process? We are experiencing long logon times (8 minutes and randomly) with our Win XP machines. We have also launched a new SOE as well as new utilities so it?s a bit of a minefield trying to diagnose where the fault lies. I suspect it could be our SMS inventory client but not sure how to prove if this is the case. I know I could remove the client and see if it makes a difference, but would prefer to know how to log these start-up processes if in future the rouge application is unknown.
Event logs show no errors
Windows boot up time is quick and not the problem.
Machines are new laptops
