RDP desktop appears very slowly on new Virtual Machines

Hello there, all! Just a quick question for the community-

I currently have 4 VM's running on a Dell 2950 Dual Core system. All vm's are currently running WAAY under the server's capabilities, so i don't suspect a performace issue- however, RDP desktops load extremely slow. No roaming profiles, nothing complicated. Once the desktop finally loads (after about 10 seconds) the server performs fine and does not seem sluggish at all. Assuming AD is not causing the problem, what else might be the cause?

Hey all- Just an update for anyone watching this thread.

Basically, it was an Acvtive Directory issue. The VLANs these VM's were connected to had IP's not existing in any SUBNET in AD, and it was authenticating across the WAN....
