XP crash on transfer of lots of files
Hi there,
I've got 2 computers, both with XP Home. One has all my mp3s and photos on it which is many thousands of files. I have them linked through a switch and using either FTP or Microsoft Filesharing, after ~150 files, the donor computer stops sending data and the donor system slowly freezes up. The cure is a reboot but it comes back every time. I've tried a crossover cable direct, but same problem.
2 x XP Home, 2 x Realtek 10/100 adapters, Linksys router joining them.
Any ideas? Many thanks.

Do either of the computers use an older via chipset or some sort of onboard raid card?
