SUMMARY
=======



SYMPTOMS
========

During the GUI portion of the Terminal Server setup, more than 900 printer
drivers may be installed on the system. It can take a significant amount of time
for the setup program to compute the set of drivers that must be loaded. This
can have the affect of making the server appear as if it has locked up.

CAUSE
=====

The Setup program uses a link list to manage the list of printer drivers in
memory.
