Kelly,
I would second Daniel's suggestion -- this sounds like duplexing.

Kelly,
One thing to check is the duplex settings on the ethernet switch and the
windows client. I've seen similar slowness when auto-negotiation is turned
off in the ethernet switch and the client comes up with different settings
than the switch.
