I'm not sure what you mean by "setting" a default profile.  All of the machines 
have a default profile.  On XP I've caught myself creating an overly large 
default profile by copying the profile from the user I used to set the machine 
up which contained cached copies of the java installer etc...

On these machines however I'm pretty sure the default profile it's copying is 
rather small in size.

XP even sometimes takes a few minutes if a new user logs in.  Is it possible 
that setting a default profile on a machine would make a difference?

Subject: [tech-geeks] slow Windows 7 logins

There's many threads out there on the Internet about slow Windows 7 logins and 
many talk about this weird solid background glitch.  I'm using the stock Win7 
default wallpaper so that's not my issue.  If a new user logs onto a machine 
causing it to build a new profile, on some of our machines that could be 
minutes.  I recently noticed this happening in our Vista lab as well so it's 
not specific to Win7 but something with the new architecture I guess.

Anybody have any stories of fixing slow login problems?
