Browsing files over a LAN

edgeofreality
We have a peer to peer network running around 10 PCs which are a mixture of 98, XPpro and even a W2Kpro machines. The problem is that when either the XP or W2K machines browse folders with a large number of files on the PC acting as the server, it takes ages to access them.

How do you resize the Start Menu window?

Sinluan
I don't know how it came about but the other day my Start Menu window went on a crash diet and shrank in width to about 50% or less of it's former size. I've tried ignoring it but it's always in my face, if you know what I mean, hehe.

Ps/2 Rate?

Arin
I remember using a program called PS/2 Rate with my old ps/2 mouse in windows 98. I could make my mouse refresh at like 200mhz and it would glide across the screen so freaking smoothly, kinda like the mouse on a macintosh.
