I am trying to troubleshoot a machine that is running XP Pro and Office
2003. It is extremely slow to save files to a network drive with Excel.
Word is somewhat slow, but Excel is really bad. For example, it takes
almost 60 seconds to save a 175K Excel file. The server is in the same
building. I took a laptop down and plugged into the same ethernet hub
and opened and saved the same file. It took only 3-4 seconds. The
network in that office is somewhat slow, but still, there must be a
problem with the machine taking 60 seconds to save. The problem doesn't
seem to occur with local files.

What could be causing this?


Thanks,

Chris
