We use Norman Antivirus, i am absolute shure this can't be the reason, we tried this settings without virus control on new windows installations but that was exact the same problem. <br />
<br />
Checksum offload disabling didn't solve the problem. <br />
<br />
MAybe this helps, i found out that this only happens on folders that are redirected like the startmenu or the mydocuments directory, windows 2008 shows the folder name like start menu, while the real name is virtual. Really trange. I have the fealing that this causes the slow access.

In my network we use windows 2003 as fileservers, the clients are windows 2008 an 2003. The 2003 servers acces the network shares very quick. On windows 2008 this is very slow on some folders. This is not for all the users and het most time this happens on the administrator account. I tried multiple file servers.<br />
<br />
I tried the following things:<br />
- Diasble the global autotuning level<br />
- disable ip V6<br />
