I was doing the same thing. When I added the option to skip virus
checking on the process mainmenu.w (I think this is the right one for
the splash screen, things picked up.

Todd,
This is going to sound silly, but I have instructed users to click the
splash screen to send it away and this has improved the time to login
screen.
Good luck,

Subject: RE: [Vantage] Re: Long login time
FWIW....I have the same issue here only on selected PCs. All are
configured
to not scan Vantage mapped drives, etc... The really crazy thing (and
I
have measured it repeatedly) is that the login screen will not appear
until exactly when the splash screen disappears. Like they are linked
somehow.
Not on every PC either but probably 1 out of 3 (including mine). RB
comes up immediately - over the top of the splash screen.
I thought the splash screen was set for 30 seconds but I can no longer
find where this is set to try 15 seconds. In the mfgsys.ini file I have
the following startup section:
[Startup]
V6Display=no
;ImmediateDisplay=yes
;MultitaskingInterval=100
DLC=V:\PROGRESS
Use-3D-Size=No
PROBUILD=V:\PROGRESS\Probuild
PROPATH=.,M:\mfgsys61
PrinterFont=Courier New,Size=12
AllowDesignMode=no
nosplash=yes
Anyone know what "ImmediateDisplay" is and why it would be commented
out?
Also, why "nosplash=yes" and yet the splash screens do come up?
Perhaps I am looking in the wrong place.
Thanks,
-Todd C.

Jeremy,
Thanks for the info. I have changed servers and I checked the anti-
virus. The anti-virus is not scanning V: and I scanned the registry for
all references for the old server (That took a while!). It seems to be
faster. I am going to try it on a couple of other pc's to see if it
makes a difference to other users here.
Thanks to all who replied! I appreciate it Jeff
checking on the process mainmenu.w (I think this is the right one for
