This is probably the interval setting. If there were say 100 devices
each with an interval of 100seconds  then all the checks could happen at
the same time ending up with lots of cpu used. Ping tries to space out
the scans to minimise load, so i'm guessing that your scans have a large
interval and your win2k server is simply the one that gets scheduled
first.  In order to make config easer if you edit a device and click
update then it schedules the scan to happen in 5 seconds.
