> This article was previously published under Q324446
> SYMPTOMS
> When a Terminal Services client logs on or logs off (either in a session
or
> on the console of the Terminal server), the Windows 2000-based Terminal
> server together with the connected Terminal Services client computers may
> stop responding or may pause for several seconds. Users may also
experience
> one or more of the follow symptoms:
> When a user types in a document, characters do not appear on the screen
> until this pause has ended.
> Keyboard input and mouse input are queued, but they are not processed
until
> this pause has ended.
> Live performance monitoring (Perfmon) graphs have missing data points
during
> this pause.
> All running programs appear to stop responding, or"hang," during this
pause.
> When Spooler is under a load from a large number of users, a high CPU
usage
> is displayed for it.
>
> CAUSE
> This problem may occur if there is a contention among server resources.
The
> contention causes a delay in processing that appears as a pause or as
> unresponsiveness.
