if we install Windows XP professional on the same hardware we receive reply as <1ms.

is there any suggestions for this.

Looks fine to me... All W2k is saying is that it is less than 10ms; it could be 1ms. XP seems to be a little more precise.

First make sure you have the correct drivers for the NIC that you are using in the 2000 box.

Next verify the settings for speed and duplex in the NIC properties sheet. Set them to 100 full duplex rather than auto and see if that helps.

It's possible that the box just needs a bit of adjustment to work correctly.

Best of luck
