One machine dual boots, that's that one that runs XP and I was getting almost 10MBps out of. nfs shares on another machine are getting close to 35MBps, so that rules out network card driver issues on both machines. Do you have more specific information on how to downgrade the necessary components. i.e. what version should I go to, and how do I do it safely without hitting dependency hell? :) Thanks, TTYL -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
