You may see this error message pop up in a dialog box while trying to login, specifically when you try and change the domain. To get the box to go away, press CTRL-ALT-DEL. To remove the problem entirely, make sure that your DNS is configured properly, by pointing the DNS servers to the domain controller for your network.

My DNS is configured perfectly and I still have this problem

I also have a similar problem - I demoted my DC which could not register clients and then promoted it again. Upon restart, it hangs at "applying computer settings" before logon.

This helped me a lot. Thanks very much.

Thank you for this information.

I managed to resolve the issue by going to Network Connections and in "Advanced TCP/IP Settings" under "DNS" Tab I checked "Use this connection's DNS Suffix in DNS registration" and then when pinging the full domain name it replied back.
