Asus A8V NIC issues

[Matt]

I recently updated my FC5 from an old A7S333 board to and A8V board
This board now has a 10/100/1000 NIC card on the MB.  I have noticed however
after upgrading my switch to a 10/1000 D-link, I can not achieve 1000Mbit
speeds on my network.  I do not see any problems in the log files or network
configs.  The D-Link indicates that both machines are currently 10/1000
connected.  After testing speed by transferring a 6.3GB file between both
machines, I get following results:

9min to transfer 6.3GB
700MB a minute
11.66 MB a second
93.333 Mbit/second  ( not anywhere close to 1000 Mbit a sec )

All of this is going through Samba.  If this makes any difference.

I have 2 boxes on this network which are:
1: Intel 2.8GHz 800FSB (Asus P4P800-SE) w/ 10/100/1000 nic on MB (Win XP)
2GB Ram DDR400
2: AMD 3500 Athlon (Asus A8V) w/ 10/100/1000 nic on MB ( Fedora 5 32-bit )
1GB Ram DDR400

Can anyone shed any light on the problem?
