SYMPTOMS
When you start a computer for the first time after you install Microsoft Windows XP, the Windows XP Mini-Setup Wizard may appear to stop responding for up to 2 minutes. This behavior occurs between the Set Date and Time page and the Network Settings page.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the following additional services are added during the network configuration phase of the Windows XP Mini-Setup Wizard:
 * TCP/IP
 * DHCP
 * DNSCache
 * Netman
 * Lmhosts
 * LanmanWorkstation

By default, the LanmanWorkstation service is the last service to be added during the network configuration phase. This process may take 2 minutes to finish. The Windows XP Mini-Setup Wizard does not continue until the LanmanWorkstation service is successfully added.
