I agree with Scott, you should make sure of your cabling.

Straight thru cabling, without regard to pairing color and color/white
works at 10Mbit, and works at 100Mbit over short distances, but
will give problems like you have over longer distances.

You have short cables ?

How short ?   Measure them.

2 clients should be no trouble, even with a server of 128 RAM and
366 Mhz CPU - for your tests, as it works with a hub.
Obviously you will need more later.

I think your network cards should also be OK for this small network.

I would go back to the cabling - maybe the patch-panel to wall cables
are wired without checking the cable pairs.

Cheers,    Andy!
