Question for BIOx:
The Pc I'm having trouble accessing is a 98sec edition from the XP machine. Do I need to just create a Network Logon with the same name and password Or do I have to go into the control panel and set up a Windows User account?
I have never had to do this kind of setup with XP...
I should have mention that I have a Netgear 10/100 D104 Dual Speed Hub. So it goes back to if I need to change the 10Mbps Nic card?
But I know your right I think I'll be much happier with a broadband router!!
Thanks

How are things working out? Let us know if you found a sulution? One other thing that can cause your system to slow down would be if your power supply was under rated. Check your power supply that it is putting out enough watts. You should have at lease a 300w PS to run smooth.
