I had a similar problem a few days ago.
Are you getting a long message telling you that the machine is not being 
able to find the domain? I don't remember the wording because it was a 
little long, but it was something like:

"Windows cannot connect to the domain either because the domain 
controller is down or otherwise unavailable or because your computer 
account was not found."

Microsoft has a lot of documentation on it. As usual I did not like what 
they had.
I took the machines out the domain, making them join a fictitious work 
group.
Then rejoin the domain and everything went OK.
I had three cases, about one week ago.
