You'll get a short delay when opening the classic control panel and to make it worse you cant see the new control panel The only solution if you really want to use the new control panel is upgrading xp to sp2 (i've done this) and never had any problem with it :) ps. the new nv control panel looks great but basically its just the same like the classic control panel .. lol Hello Philip,

I noticed that when you try to load the new control panel, it never shows up(although the process appears in task manager). The process "winlogon.exe" then starts to use a mountain of CPU resource while the control panel tries to load. Ending the control panel process will stave the winlogon.exe cpu usage normally within a minute. Switching to the classic display (go through display properties>settings>advanced) removes this problem, activating the winlogon.exe cpu usage for only a second or 2 before it opens.
