RE: Slow Network with New SBS 2003 & Old XP Workstations

I don't think DNS is a problem, and dcdiag and netdiag don't show anything
that looks unusual to my untrained eye. The one dcdiag test that fails is
related to intersite messaging, and we have only one site and one DC. I've
posted ipconfig, dcdiag, and netdiag results below (with domain name &
external IP replaced).
Note that the SBS server has 2 NICs, one with a public address, one for the
LAN. We are running ISA server 2004 with SP3, but I've disabled it at times
with no effect on this issue.
Offline files were enabled, but I don't believe anyone ever used them (or
knew how). Most users use roaming profiles which I know can take a long time
to load on a new workstation, but we have the same issues with users with
only local profile (or even local Admin account). Users with roaming profiles
can use the clean workstation (i.e. set up from scratch) without issues.
I asked MS support about uninstalling SP2, and they didn't recommend it (of
course). I hate to mess with the server if it is running okay and it's just a
problem on the old workstations.
We had already disabled Receive Side Scaling (RSS) because of an earlier
issue, and disabled any TCP offload functionality while trying to solve this
problem. I also updated NICs on both server with newer Broadcom drivers from
Dell. Microsoft tried changing other advanced properties of our network
adapters (such as speed & duplex), but nothing made a difference.
References to old servers and domain name are all gone now, and seemed to be
mainly two areas: installer locations (pointing to our "software" share), and
printer setups. I changed these to point to new locations rather than simply
delete them from the registry.
I'll try the suggestion of monitoring workstation with task manager and see
what that yields.
