Slow copying files over network

Posted: 02-10-2007, 09:33 AM
Hi,

I have a gigabit network with a netgear gs605 switch.

When copying files from my windows 2003 machine onto vista it does it at
only 5mb per sec. But if I reboot my machine in xp (its dual boot) and
do the same i get my usual 50meg per sec.

I've tried search the net for the past 7 days but I have had any
solution to this. Can someone please offer some advice?

I have updated the drivers for my network card to the latest Marvell
Yukon drivers for vista.

thanks.

I'm having the same issue and am searching for a solution, I get about
8MB/sec max. Unacceptable.

Thanks Tom!

I'll give it a try - maybe it will improve the copying time too.

How do i actually get the patch - there does not seem to be any links to
download. I guess i have to request the patch from MS? Not sure of the
quickest way to do that.

Thanks

Sorry everyone, but I tried the patch and it didn't help with the
speed of the copy. I suspected it wouldn't because the article said
it addresses a "hang" while copying from a network drive - my problem
isn't a hang but a slow (5-8MB/sec) transfer. I had to call Microsoft
to get the patch 1-800-936-3500 make sure you have the article ID when
you call. Or you can email me and I can send it to you with the
password. We will get to the bottom of this, it's just a question of
when.
