open the lan card properties from device manager and go to advanced tab. Select 'Link speed & duplex' to 10 Mbps or above. Basically that should marginally help you. But, make sure your hdd is not the bottleneck.

see if you are using a hub to connect your lan( which is quite obvious )then there is no way to make your lan connection fast. becasue hub first broadcast the data over the network n checks every machine for correct delievery which cause a problem n data transfer will be slow.
