windows xp pro - load balancing - multiple network cards
Hi,
I have two pcs with windows xp pro installed on that are used for various purposes and there are a lot of file transfers one between each other and also across the network to other machines.
i already have two intel NICS in each pc but i would like to know how to setup load balancing on windows xp so I can run dual 100mbps instead of 100mbps ....
is it even possible ??

Note that most home use switches don't support link aggregation. You may be better off to just get a couple of gigabit adapters and a gigabit switch.
Could always try this:
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM \CurrentCo ntrolSet\S ervices\Ne tBT\Parame ters]
Value Name: RandomAdapter
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = disabled, 1 = enabled)
May work. May not. Good luck!
