6086.0. "Customer's Windows NT 4.0 Server slow..." by CHOWDA::GLICKMAN (writing from Newport,RI) Fri Jun 06 1997 07:43
Looking for some pointers here:
Customer set up a Windows NT 4.0 Server on Pentium 166, 24 MB mem and
a 2GB hard drive (1 partition FAT).
Logon is slow.
Bringing up Network Neighborhood he tells me takes close to 2 minutes
see other nodes.
Explorer takes at least a minute to come up.
CPU is loafing at 4-8% utilized. Memory is 26588K/40240K.
I noticed he installed DHCP Manager, DNS Manager, License Manager,
Migration Tools for Netware. None of which I think he needs.
He also has Office installed (no one is using) among several other
applications.
He is using a BACKPACK Cdrom, External modem and an HP LaserJet 4
printer.
He would like to see better performance and use this Server for
printing and RAS dialin access.
I thought about having him re-install Windows NT 4.0 but I thought
I would check in here for other thoughts. Any other clues I can
get by troubleshooting this any further? What tools do I use?
I didn't check out the Pagefile size but I can...
Appreciating any assistance with this matter.
Thanks.

Anyone running NT Server on 24MB should not be complaining about slow
performance! Just my opinion.
