Blank Explorer windows on dual CPU servers

Got a Windows 2000 Server that displays blank Explorer windows until you refresh or right click inside them? Recently updated to 2 CPUs (and installed the Multiprocessor HAL)?

You need Patch KB:328310 (MS02-071), even if you've installed it already.

Can't authenticate users in a trusted domain for RRAS/VPN

See this thread, to which the ultimate outcome seemed to be that you have to add the other DC to the group "Pre-Windows 2000 Compatible Users" on the DC
net localgroup "Pre-Windows 2000 Compatible Access" everyone /add

See KB:240855.
