After a new installation of Windows XP, I try to copy
files across my home network and the transfers take a very
long time. A 250mb file takes 3 to 4 minutes. I've
replaced every piece of PC hardware as well as network
hardware. I've installed Win98SE on the former XP machine
and the transfer of the same file takes less than 30
seconds. Two 98 PCs have no problem, but install XP on
any PC and the file transfers take forever. Commands are
given on the XP machine from either Windows Exploer or a
command prompt, both exhibit the same performance.
I've changed mobos, nics, HDs, cabling, and routers.
Anything with XP installed won't transfer files very
well. Sometimes I get transfers that say they will take
66 minutes on the same 250mb file. I've changed the 3com
3xp nic from auto to 100mb full duplex, no luck. I've
edited the registry to reduce the the TcpDelAckTicks and
deleted the InternetMTU, no luck. I've flashed bioses,
installed new mobo drivers and nic drivers, no luck. I've
installed SP1a and all critical updates, no luck.
Internal firewalls are inactive on XP and I'm not running
any anti-virus or firewalls anywhere else. I replaced the
router with another router (running DHCP), no luck. I've
specified internal IPs (peer to peer) and use a hub, no
luck. I'm running XP as a client(peer to peer), as far as
I know. I can browes any drive and access and download
the internet w/o any problems and with the same speeds as
the other PCs, but when it comes to file transfers,
massive slowness. Any ideas, pleeeeeease?
