Windows XP: Mini-Setup wizard appears to stop responding for up to three minutes

The Windows XP Mini-Setup wizard appears to stop responding for up to three minutes

SYMPTOMS

When you start a computer for the first time after a new operating system is installed, the Mini-Setup wizard gathers any information that is required for the new operating system. When the wizard begins to configure network settings for a wireless LAN based computer, the computer may appear to stop responding for one to three minutes.

Note This behavior only occurs during the network configuration phase of the Mini-Setup wizard on some computers. The behavior does not occur again and does not affect typical operation of the computer after the Mini-Setup wizard has completed.
