Default Slow file Transfer From Xp to Vista Machine

Hi,

I've Vista on a new 6600 machine, fast HD and a lot of memory.
I'm connecting to a c$ share on my old XP machine, and the file trasnfer
rate (when it doesn't hang on teh "calculating" stage) is very very low
(54KBPS, sometime 100KBPS) although both connected to a fast ethernet switch.

There is a microsoft KB article about this issue, with 4 different ways to
fix it.

Non of them work !!! (mapped a drive, change the autotunig to disable,
remove the navigation pane, tried robocopy).

I've seen many posts about it on the net, but no good reply yet,

Dani

Default Slow file Transfer From Xp to Vista Machine


Hi,
Both configured 100 full duplex.
many users complains about this - in the last few days, I've found it's a
very common problem, and frankly, I can't understand how vista QA team missed
it. the larger the file you copy, the more problem you have...

There is a hotfix the addresses part of this problem, it is on technet,
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/931770

I don't know if this works, as I (and the rest of the world) can't get it
yet. I'll post a comment if it helps once I would found a way to download it.

Do you by any chance have a third party firewall ?
I had a problem with slow push file copies to XP from Vista until I
un-installed McAfee's firewall, disabling it was not enough.
I have One Care's version of the Windows firewall which seems not to
affect speeds (plus a hardware (router) firewall).

Default Slow file Transfer From Xp to Vista Machine

Hi

The problem does not appear network only related! I have the same issue even
copying between different drives on the same computer. These drives are all
NTFS formatted under XP Pro and when you copy a file from them to a Vista
folder it can take several minutes even for a 50k file.

I have also had the same issue using Vista Business at work connecting to a
Domain network shared drive; copying a file (any size) would result in very
long copy times and usually if the file was a document (Word) then it would
not copy correctly.
