I am running Windows XP Home on five computers connected
via LAN and all access the internet through a DSL modem
attached to a 10/100 router. The internet seems fast
enough but when one computer tries to access a file on
another is seems to take a while. Any suggestions?
 
Sounds like I have a nearly identical problem... see my

I haven't found a resolution to the problem, but reading
through some of the things I've tried may save you some
time trying to resolve this. The interesting thing is
that when I bring up the troublesome computer in SAFE
mode, the network connection and browsing operates as it
should... fast! In normal mode, it can take up to 5
minutes just to return from trying to connect to a shared
device. I am nearly resolved to reformat and go back to
Windows 2000!
