I hope you solved your original problem, in the meanwhile. If you didn't , have a
look at my case:
I had pretty similar symptoms,
- dos batch files running fine for the 1st month in my laptop with Windows XP, then
suddenly
very slow execution of any dos command sequence run whithin a batch file.
What I found is that the problem is strictly related to the 'Auto-protect' function
of the Norton antivirus. Only if I disable it, the batch file execution comes back
to its normal speed.
I did not try other antivirus for now.
