have many warnings in event log for DNS issue - name resolution for the name 6to4.ipv6.microsoft.com timed out after none of the configured dns servers responded.
no big deal and ignore? net search says seems to be related to routers in some way. don't have a router except for the one provided by charter cable.

boy I wish one could copy n paste those event summaries instead of having to type them out lol

I get the same DNS warning on bootup. I use Cox.net for by interent cable so my name is replated to a cox server. It would also be interesting to find out what causes it but it really doesn't hurt anything because it clears as soon as it finds the server in a few more seconds.

I get the same DNS warning on bootup.

I have had similar issues with a laptop. It is really just timing. The lappy is not the fastest puter in the bunch and the slow boots means some applications or services try to start before Windows is ready for them.

Since computers these days are internet appliances above all, Windows seems to try to connect online at the very earliest opportunity in the boot cycle.
