Slow networking ?!

Hi,

I have a Windows 2000 Professional (SP4) computer networked to a Windows XP Professional computer. Upon browsing the networked files/folders on the Windows 2000 computer, I am experiencing a slow response; - in other words, I have marked certain folders on the Windows XP computer as shared. Although I can access them on the Windows 2000 computer, browsing them and executing files within them are slow.

Any ideas ???

Thanks,
Steve.
 

To speed up XP browsing:
Open the registry editor.
Go to

HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Explorer/RemoteComputer/NameSpace

Export this key (in order to back it up)
and then delete the key called:
{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} (Task Scheduler).
Close the registry.
