Can a workstation still hold the bad DNS cache even if the system has been re-booted. Would putting in the DNS records to static be better than relying on the dhcp to insert into the cache????

Hi gang, I have an issue with a very slow network. What it is configured like follows: Server 2003 Domain XP Pro workstations Bell Modem D-Link Router set to DHCP Netgear Switch Users connect and it may take up to 1 hour before they have access to the shared folders. All users have been given full access to all folders yet they still get prompted for their name and password. There are times when they cannot even log onto the network. It say domain not found. I have changed servers I have changed switches The only thing left is the d-link router or the new cabling done. I am going to set up a laptop directly to the switch to see if it is the wiring. BTW: The server is connected directly to the router not the switch. The router is the gateway and the DHCP .... Any thoughts as where to go to get this systems back to normal speed.....
