Have have 2 new Dell's running XP in a 10baseT network with W2K advanced server. All the communications seem fine other than when the XP machines are attached to the network they produce excessive network traffic to the point I'm getting collisions every couple of seconds, even when sitting idle.
When I disconnect them the collisions go away and the network runs normally. I have 10 other Win9X machines running on the network just fine. Only the XP's are causing the problems.
Could it be the way I set them up? I am unfamilar with XP and pretty much stumbled around to get them going.
