re: Network speed between WinXP and Win98 Wednesday, October 16, 2002 at 5:08 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Mark (1 messages posted) Chris, Have you had any luck resolving you problem? I have been looking for a solution also. I have a Win98se Desktop and a XP Laptop on a home 10/100 network using a Linksys Cable/DSL router. I can copy files from the Win98 machine to the XP machine OK. A 7Mb file takes less than 10 seconds but going from XP to Win98 takes about 6 or 7 minutes. I did find a work around on the Microsoft site (Knowledge Base Article Q315237) for XP but it didn't help. Don't know what else to check. Thanks!
