Default file transfer speed slow

Just reinstalled everything after formatting due to a virus but
now have other problems. Hard drive speed is ok according
to sisoft sandra but file transfers take forever. I transfer files
from one pc to another and what used to take seconds now
takes several minutes, also the drive takes ages to delete when
using bcwipe.I have 2 hard drives and both are the same but
before reinstalling only the second drive was slow. As i say
sisoft sandra reports the actual drive speed as being good ,
its not fragmented but theres a bottleneck somewhere when
tranfering files and wiping. Dma is selected on both drives and
i have reinstalled the chipset drivers. Any ideas ?.

Andy.

Look at the network cards and see if they are set to the correct
speed.
