I was waiting for someone to post something about this. I was starting to think it was just me. Before I built an XP machine, I had all perfect-working Win98SE machines talking at full 100Mb ethernet. Since I simply added an XP machine to the network, the traffic across it was dropped. When from the XP machine, trying to move or copy files, it takes nearly an entire minute for the transfer to even begin(And when you're WAITING, a minute can be a very long time). I've heard of a patch for this.. But I'm probably being mislead, because I've never seen anyone else have the problem. I'm still looking, but I'm hoping someone has an idea on why XP is being retarted like this. The other funny thing. When connecting to an FTP server I'm running on the XP machine, it's a decent speed.
