What is the Scratch setting? It should be TMP Is the antivirus software scanning the RBase files or folder? Place a Word file in the folder on computer A and try to open it and time it. Is everything slow or only some things?
I can run 7.6 on an old laptop with 512RAM and it runs fine. I am sure you will get better suggestions soon from the RBrains Marc From: Luc Delcoigne Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2010 2:52 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - re: network trouble Hi, I have developed an application in R:base 9.0 (64) under Win 7. This application runs fine and fast when run on one PC. the latest version of R:base is installed on my PC's. When I put two recent PC's in a network via a 100 Mbit/sec switch, with the database in a shared directory on PC A, it still runs well on PC A, but when I log in from PC B, it goes SLOW on this PC and eventually locks up, so that I have to restart R:base on PC B. (PC A : 6 GB RAM, 1 Tb HDD...PC B : 4GB RAM and 500 MB HDD) I don't dare to image what a disaster this could in a small network with 5-6 workstations. It must be that I am overlooking something in the network setup. Could anyone give me 'to do'list on what to do exactly and in what order so to get a workable network application. This network thing is the last step I have to make in my conversion from Access to R:base. (sometimes I begin to regret I didn't stick with Access...as far as this network thing is concerned).... Any help would be greatly appreciated.... Luc Delcoigne
