If its one of those pci nics that specify a requirement that it be located in a slot that supported "bus-mastering" then it might well be that. Check the docs for the nic. If this is so, then move the nic to a pci slot that supports bus-mastering (if the MoBo is a type that has only one, then the bus-mastering slot would most probably be slot0. Just another option to try. Stacey On Sat, 2002-11-23 at 23:17, Patrick Fish wrote: > Hi, > > I'm having some problems transferring large files at a high rate of > speed over my LAN.
