Windows 7 hangs for a bit when accessing network drive
I can't seem to find a solution anywhere but the problem is. I have one central computer with windows 7 on it. When any computer in the house, whether it be my laptop with Vista, my desktop with XP, or my other desktop with Windows 7 connects to that network drive it hangs for a couple minutes before being able to open the file, or copy the file. This happens on all 3 machines accessing the network drive on the central computer.
This same result occurred when I setup my other desktop with windows 7 so that makes me think its something with windows 7 itself.
I do not have any firewall/antivirus programs installed, and I even turned off windows firewall and windows defender on the server that were all accessing.
Any ideas?
