Vista - Extremely Slow Upload Speed to Server 2k3

Extremely Slow Upload Speed to Server 2k3

I'm running Vista Ultimate x64 and I'm running a file server using Windows Server 2003, both computers are hooked up through standard Cat5 through a D-Link DI-524.

Whenever I pull files from the server machine to the vista machine it will transfer the files at a normal speed. Whenever I try to send files from the Vista machine to the server machine the transfer speed is ungodly slow. It took 7 minutes to transfer a 19mb file from Vista to Server, but to pull the same file back from the server took 25 seconds.

Another related issue is that when I am sending files to the server machine from my vista machine, the vista machine becomes quite slow, sometimes taking 45-60 seconds to open any type of simple application (i.e. Firefox). As soon as the transfer is over the Vista machine behaves like normal.

I recently installed Vista Ultimate x64 replacing WinXP Pro SP3 x86 and I never had any of the issues I am currently experiencing.

System specs for both machines are:
  • Vista Ultimate x64 SP1
    • EVGA 680i Motherboard
      C2D E6600
      2GB Patriot DDR2
      Geforce 7900GS
      2x74gb WD Raptor in RAID-0
      500gb Seagate Drive
      Sound Blaster X-fi ExtremeMusic
  • Server 2003 Enterprise Edition SP2
    • FIC VG33 845GE Motherboard
      Pentium 4 2.6
      1GB Kingston DDR
      Integrated Intel Graphics
      WD 80GB
      Realtek HD Intergrated Audio

You may try to disable auto tuning. Or this troubleshooting may help.

Re: Extremely Slow Upload Speed to Server 2k3

I figured out what the issue was ... FirstPacket under the nVidia Control Panel was enabled. As soon as I disabled that feature everything works perfectly!

Just in case anyone is wondering this is driver version 9.64 64bit directly from nVidia's site.
