Curious that in one build issued 2 weeks after 5728 that NIC drivers could
suddenly become flaky (and not the least bit flaky on 5728). Oh well, life
in the beta fastlane. Incidentally, I'm running my networking off my mobo
(MSI 7125) with the most current BIOS.

Here is another take on the latest Vista release...

"I'm not seeing any problems with networking. I regularly copy files I'm
working on
to an XP Pro computer and a Windows Server 2003 computer for backups. When
I'm
working on a web site I copy about 15 to 30 MB every half hour or so. I also
have
mp3's streaming from my XP pro computer almost all the time I'm using Vista.
Most
of the networking problems seem to be related to flakey NIC drivers not some
underlying problem with Vista. So far 5744 has worked flawlessly for me with
about
six hours of actual use. Most of that was with Expression Web Designer and
Office
2007. EWD in particular seems quite a bit faster than it was in previous
versions
of Vista. 

I still can't play avi's encoded with xvid though. :-( That's my holy grail
with
Vista."
