Here is the enviroment:

4 machines networked through a Netgeat Switch.

Machine "A" has a second drive (D:\) that contains folders and files for the company. All other machines have access to the particular folder on "D:\". All running Windows XP.

When someone modifies a Word Doc or Excell Sheet and then saves it, it takes about 30 seconds or so to save. WHich is not usual.

The D:\ drive was once in its own machine (HP Pavillion) on the network and they didn't have any delay in saving like this. Since that machine died (MB Problem) we took the drive out and made it the second drive in a new machine and gave it shared access to all other computers.

What can I look at to find out why it is so slow in saving?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
