No crossovers or anything. The lan was faster with the Cnet 10 mbps hub.

I did manually set the 10/100 NIC on the desktop. That broght things back to normal between that machine and a machine with a 10 mbps NIC. But the connection between those machines and a Compaq Presario notebook with internal 10/100 NIC is still terribly slow no matter what settings I chose for that NIC.

manually set your NICs to 100Mb/s half duplex if they're capable of this. i've got a linksys switch and this seems to be the best setup for the switch.
