PC drags down Network
Anyway, I put it on the network and right away, the network went south. EVERYTHING was extremely slow, so did all the normal things to find out what was going on.
After a couple of hours, I disconnected the CAT5 from the Dell off the network, and everything was then fine. Put it back on the network, drug the network back down.
Now this box had NEVER been on the net before, but ran antivirus and a few spywares, but found nothing.
Here's the thing. I went into Network properties and checked the "Show icon in notification area when connected" and it didn't show a whole lot of traffic. Pinged the box from 8 or 9 other boxes, all came back at 1ms.
Pinged out of the box, same times. Then watched the packets coming and going from the box, minimal at best.
Any idea's on what the problem might be?? TIA
