From what I have read and from personal experience the problem may not
be caused by the network or its settings. The number one cause of
problems is the health of windows operating system and the disk it runs
on. Without dealing with these issues there is no basis for tinkering
with network settings. If you have Spinrite, please use it to check and
repair the partition and file records. After that repair windows files
including registry. Only after all that can you say for sure "I have a
network problem".
After dealing with people who never did any maintainance and the
dramatic results achieved from doing some, this has to be considered
first. To be specific, this is concerned with the physical condition of
file records on your partition. Without this you have a ship with holes
in it.
