nobody anymore?

OK, just the MS fixit. Restarted the pc and at first sight it helped. Program started in 15-20 secs. But the third time it took about 2 minutes to start. That’s about 50% better but not the way it should be of course.
Robocopy at the server to the pc of 700mb took 7 minutes, at the pc from the server 12 minutes.
Have to say robocopy has no stable speed in copying, most of the time you can see the percentage going up by .1%, sometimes it accelerates about .3%.
A ccleaner didn’t help.
Any clue?

Hi Joe, didn’t notice the + in front of Applies to. Sorry. Wil try the msi.

Hi Joe, seems your link is to a Vista solution. For XP it’s http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314067. Don’t see anything in that to reset the TCP/IP stack. Or am I wrong?

Well, as far as I understand your question: I installed everything new on this new server, than copied the data from the old server to the new one. Than changed on all pc’s f: from the old server to the exact map on the new one. And just this pc has trouble with the speed. All others XP and Win7 have no trouble.
When I change the f: on this pc to the old server, speed is up again. Don’t really know what to try next.

OK, after a restart of the server:
robocopy at server:
server to pc: 8.5 seconds
pc to server: 1 second
robocopy at pc:
server to pc: 10.40
Remarkable, isn’t it?

Hi,
After disabling chimney offload robocopy took 12 seconds to copy the 700mb file. Remarkably faster then the 45 formerly. On the pc one programm is a lot faster but two others still take minutes to start. Might be written in VBA or the like. Don’t really know. The other suggestions didn’t make a change.
Just disabled Windows Search on the server, but can’t do the needed restart untill tomorrow night. Will let you know of course.
Naming this thread in the newsletter of Windowssecrets didn’t attrack other sugggestions unfortunately. Would be nice though. Everyone is invited 😉
Tnx anyway.

The odd thing is: other pc’s (all HP but different series with xp pro) don’t have this problem. Thinking of changing the on-board NIC into a 1Gb PCI.

Sjors

Was just reading that, will try it later.
I will let you know.

Sjors

yep, 15 minutes again on robocopy for 700mb!

sjors

tried a ping for what it’s worth: all sizes: TTL 128.
Sound on that level.
And no Novell as was the solution in the last post

am testing with robocopy right now but as far as I can see it makes no difference at all.

SBS 2011 Essentials
XP Pro 32

no restart needed?
It’s a combination of 4yr old pc’s with only 100Mb Nic’s for XP and new one’s with 1000Mb and win7. And of course the server. Weird that only this oldie seems to have trouble.
