I run XP on my main machine and thus have MJ on it. I rip and analyze gain my CDs on my 2000 box with MJ also since doing so takes up so much cpu utilization and then I transfer from the 2k box to my XP box and import into MJ.
My problem is how darn slow the network is using XP. I previosly had 2k on this box and had no problems, so there isn't a NIC issue. I tested transfer between the 2k box and my laptop on the network that also has 2k and it has no speed issues. We are talking a 3 to 3 and a half times longer time to transfer.
I could transfer 8 CDs worth of data from 2k to 2k in 30 minutes. It takes over 90 minutes to do it from 2k to XP.
I've already did the registry tweak for collision timeout suggested by MS and I also knocked the 20% bandwidth reserve for QoS to 0% and still no change.
Does anyone here know why the hell XP is causing such a slow data transfer?
