    FoxPro loads very very slow on Windows 7

    Griff - runs normal, sane speed as wink server Olaf - nothing red here. I can check the cable / card but it's blazing fast in all other aspects. It's even running Mozy Pro backup. It connects to the win 2k server share \\server\data\lucky and backs up nightly.

    FoxPro loads very very slow on Windows 7

    Nobody in the office knows anything about it, the guy who created it disappeared. They've just been using it ever since. So you know if it could be related to Windows 2000 server encrypted files? The data folder was copied from Windows 2000 Server to the Windows 7 Workstation. Perhaps it...

    FoxPro loads very very slow on Windows 7

    I don't know if we have the source code, it's incredibly old and I am not a programmer. I feel like we are really struggling here to find a solution why it won't work on from a Windows 7 Workstation.

    Olaf, you are 100% correct in understanding the setup. Wireshark is going to be over my head. I just dont get why the WIN7 clients do not work.

    FoxPro loads very very slow on Windows 7

    Olaf, here is the diagram of our setup. You can see it's identical setup, both coexist. Difference being that we have different workgroups VINTAGEINCUSA (Windows 2000 Server) vs VINTAGE (Windows 7 Pro) PC Clients can connect to Windows 2000 Server and run the lucky.exe shortcut with no...

    FoxPro loads very very slow on Windows 7

    GriffMG: but the freshly formatted WindowsXP PC client does not have a default printer installed and it worked perfectly on live environment. When connecting to the test environment it takes forever to load. Olaf: in the video you can see it loads immediately locally. So the issue is when...

    FoxPro loads very very slow on Windows 7

    1. Windows 7 Pro can handle up to 20 connections. We only have 7 employees accessing lucky.exe at peak times. 2. Since this custom system is so old I would not dare touch moving files around. This is everything for them, it runs the company. 3. How to we check if Windows 2000 server is...
