On June 12 I mentioned here about freezing of the PC while copying files
between HDD's. Later I thought it was the round IDE-cable.
Well, it wasn't.

It has to do with installation, but don't know where to start.
Have one PC, working on XP. Another PC working with ME. Both are connected
to the internet through a router, Sitecom DC202, and to each other.
It seems to work fine, but it doesn't.

Both pc's have a fine connection to the internet. Both pc's are able to list
the files, shared with the other pc.
But:

From the ME-machine, when I list a map from the other machine, everything I
do needs about 2 minutes, before it's done.
I can play MP3, but renaming that file takes ages. Right-click / Rename,
have to wait, than rename, after enter have to wait.
From the list, sort the files by name: have to wait...

Please help

Some (Dutch) person pointed me to here:

Like anybody else, a clean install (ME in my case), than the Via 4-in-1
drivers, than Windows updates, all other drivers needed.
One of those messed up things. This site pointed out that a cleaning the
system from old (not used) drivers and than only the latest, might make the
difference...
It did

Thank you

You may well have found an answer, however, see my second post in your
earlier thread, it is better to be sure than sorry.
