W7 Machines getting stuck logging on after SEP install

  • 1.  W7 Machines getting stuck logging on after SEP install

    Posted Aug 13, 2014 12:07 PM

    Hello, We have been having an issue for many months now that has been driving me crazy.  All the machines effected are Windows 7.  These machines will get 'stuck' at various points throughout the log in process, mostly stuck at 'welcome'  We did a push of SEP a few months back to all machines and it seems to be causing the issue.  I used a test machine that was having the issue, uninstalled Symantec and installed Security Essentials.  The machine has not had the issue since. 

     

    However, I need a fix for this as Symantec is our company wide anti-virus.  Please help.

    Anything in the Traffic log?

    If you disable the fw as a test, what's the result?

    I do not see anything that stands out at this point however I did disable the firewall and I don't seem to be having the log on issue yet.

    Nothing that stands out....problem is, I don't think the machines get far enough into the log on process to log any events.

    May want to ring up support to get them involved. They may need to review your current settings.
