Hello Friends,

i have huge collection of photos of my camera/wallpaper, videos, and mp3 collection on PC without DVD writer and i want to format it.
My laptop has new 80 GB HDD and is empty.
i want to back it on laptop.but when I made network b/n them in XP file transfer is too slow, 1mp3 is transferred in 5-6 seconds.

IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN INCREASE THIS SPEED?

I have realtek RTL8139/810x family FAST ETHERNET NIC on both side with following options available in xp = attached image

WHAT SETTINGS SHOULD I USE? IN LAN CARD AND IN XP?

ITS NOT THOS 50-60 GB BUT I WANT IT FAST IN FUTURE ALSO, FOR TRANSFERRING IT AGAIN TO PC.

THANK U :)
