moolmanj Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Hi guysCan anyone help me, I have a Dell M90 Laptop wich is on our companys Domain, The laptop works 100% while it is physically connected to the domain with a Network cable. The problem starts when the user goes home. When the laptop is physically unplugged. As soon as you start up the computer and log into windows ( still on the domain account ) ie... username :bob password **** domain Rockwell) the mouse and keyboard freezes and you cant do anything,My laptop is also on the domain but i have no problem when working at homeplease helpthanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAT64 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Why are you trying to logon to a domain when you are not connected to a domain? Just use a local account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moolmanj Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 HiThe main reason for this is that the user`s email account etc is configured on that profile. if i use a local account how will he be able to read his mails etc.and even sometimes if i try to log into the local account it also hangs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAT64 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Access emails over the web? Or add his email account details to a local login account? As long as you leave a copy of any messages on the server. If your laptop hangs when logging on to a local account then that's another issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moolmanj Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 when i log into the local account with my cable plugged in it works fine, it only hangs when disconnected, doesnt make sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcemanND Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Are both machines (yours without the problem, and the problem machine) in the same OU and receiving the same group policies? If not you are comparing apples to oranges.If the user lets the machine sit after logging in does it eventually finish loading his profile? Do you redirect any folders to network locations, such as My documents? There are a number of things that can cause issues like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moolmanj Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 yes, its the same ou, he is using a mapped networked drive and there is also a mapped network printer.the GP is also the sameit never finishes the loading, it gets into windows shows all you icons etc, then it gives a beep and freezes up.

iamtheky Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Do you have roaming profiles? Maybe a server side script that it is trying to run and fails when logging on locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
