I have replaced both NIC's, and I have locked down the card in the XP box
to Full Duplex instead of auto-negotiate(is there a way to do this under
linux, I wouldn't know).  I tried this awhile ago and it did not fix the
problem.

I don't really understand what you are saying here.  Try what under linux?
 The share mount?

Thanks!
