Hi everyone, I’m having an issue transferring any files into my i7 pc. The specs of my pc are:
• Asus p6t deluxe mobo
• Intel 920 i7 cpu
• 3gb ddr3 ram
• Seasonic 600w PSU
• Windows vista ultimate edition 64bit
Whenever i transfer files from my laptop(Win XP SP3 connected wirelessly) to my vista pc its slow as hell transferring at a crawling rate of around 300kbps for a network transfer!

In my old pc which was running xp sp3, the transfer rates between my old pc and the laptop worked fine so im wondering if its a win vista problem or a setting that im missing?

My vista machine is in the same workgroup as the other xp sp3 pc’s and laptops i have. I don’t think it’s an issue with the Mobo either as i can download at max 1.8mbps on the internet lol.

Cheers in advance

SP1 supposedly fixed network speed issues between Vista and XP machines, do you have Vista SP1?

Are you transferring large numbers of files or files from a directory that contains large numbers of files?

My work laptop has always been extremly slow copying to the server. Even now with SP1 and everything. Copying now from CD and it says 60.3KB/s. This is a dual core with 2GB ram and all they eye candy turned off.
