I had a similiar problem but it was being caused by the nic.  Duplexing was
not turned on and large excel files were causing big time hangs and delays.

No... The /PAE switch is something different... This allows you to address
space beyond 4 gigs... Also, your applications have to support the API
extension..  The switch will also add additional overhead to the server.

 

What Josh needs to evaluate is TScale or ArmTech.

try the /PAE switch in boot.ini

I have a 2003 server with XP FR3 with four gigs of ram, it has heavy 
Excel usage, but only about 12 users. The probIem is the excel.exe 
process tends to get up to 200 to 300 megs of ram, and as that gets to be
per 
user, the box become unresponsive to new users or apps, until I kill a 
few of the Excel processes. It looks like I'm hitting the 2gb wall 
here, and the /3gb switch will not help if Excel dosen't utilize the extra 
1 gig space. So I'm guessing there is no real resolution other then 
adding another server?

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Josh
