xp network issue

[accnt10nt]

have upgraded on of the workstations on a small network of 4 computers to XP pro.
The server is just a win98se machine running a peer to peer network.
When i try to browse in a program that the data is on the server (win98se machine) it takes a good 20 sec. but once I have found what im looking for everythink is very quick......
Does any body have a clue y/...

When i load up win explorer I can see the mapped drives to this info almost instantly.

Have you loaded the service pack for Windows XP? There has been a problem with this. Relate to this link for more answers:

Have you checked the configuration page of the Linksys settings??<type 192.68.1.1 in your browser window> From there you want to carefully check all your options to make sure they are correct.

Here are some links that will help you with your router:

http://www.practicallynetworked.com/support/linksys_router_help.htm

http://www.linksys.com/support/support.asp

On that last link is Linksys Support, select the model of your router and check for any options that might tell you how to speed up the router. Enkrypted

I have been having a similar problem only it was with a w2k and win 9x machine. turn off the task scheduler on the 98 machine and see if it makes a diference. It didnt work for my situation but you never know, someone in another post told me about it. Good luck.
