Hello Sunil,

Are you saying that the PCs can talk to other PCs on the same switch @ 100Mbps speed?

Check following.
1. You should have CAT 5 standard cabling to get 100 Mbps.
2. The  switch ports/cards you are using has to be 100 Mbps or 10/100Mbps(100BaseTx 
FastEthernet).
3. If the PCs can't talk to other PCs on different switch, check the connections 
between the switches. If you are using cross-over cat5 cable the check those cables 
for right crimping. OR if U are using the cascading ports on your switch check those 
flat cables. Most switches give LED indications for errors.
4. Last but noe least  Check other error LEDs like n/w collision/partition etc.

Best Luck

Abhay
