I have just transferred about a gig of Access databases from a dying NT4 box onto a brand new Windows Server 2003 dual processor box with 2Gb of RAM on a 1Gb network.
The Access 2 databases are working fine, as are the Access 2000 databases. The Access 97 databases all take about 20minutes to load. I have traced through the4 hubs and the bridges and they are all fine, no collisions. The cabling is fine.
The only thing that fixes the problem is to change the XP pc's from a 10Mb hub to a 100Mb hub but even then the databases are not as fast as they were on the old NT box (Pentium 200Mhz dual processor).
I can't think of why this problem is happening. Can anyone think what may be happening?
