We have just installed a new WIN2000 server. We have moved our files to this server. One of these folders holds images of bid we get back from various vendors. For whatever reason we are now delayed in saving these files.
We receive the fax and then chose to do a 'save as' after we open it. At this time it now waits until it brings up all files of the same type before allowing us to type in the new file name that we wish to save. The folder contains some 10,000 files.
On the newer P4 systems this delay is only 3 to 4 seconds. On the older P3 systems this delay could be up to 15 to 20 seconds. Both systems have WIN200 professional on them with 256mb of memory. This never used to do this. We were allowed to start typing the name in the filename box as soon as the 'save as' popup came up.
Is this a result of the new server and domain? Is there a setting that we can do to allow immediate typing without waiting for the system to identify all other files of the same filetype?
The new server has DNS active by the way.
Thanks for any help
I will be posting this in the WIN2000 Server forum also.
