Hey guys,
I'm running windows XP and It connects to a huge network of multiple workgroups that span a college campus. Of coarse, the network consists of many workgroups with a mixture of win9x/Me/2000/Xp machines. The problem is that my windows XP pro machine seems to be browdsing the network at a VERY sluggish rate, regardless of whether or not the machine it connects to is a win9x/Me/Nt/2k/XP machine or not! I have set up NetBios over TCP/IP and I doubt that this may be the reason since win9x/Me machines use NETBEUI instead.
Someone please help. thanx.
