Windows XP slow on networks

[Morley Lee]

I have multiple xp pc's running on different networks with different
servers. All xp pc's are running slow especially after updating all
security updates. These are brand new pc's P4 3.0 and greater. Everything
else works fast off of the c drive. However, bringing up word or exel
documents off the server takes about 10 to 30 seconds. The common factor
that I have found possibly is that those pc's log into Novell server as well
with novell client v4.9 with sp. Does anyone know a fix for this slow
response off of any server whether you are file and printing off of a
microsoft server or novell server ? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
