Apart from having a broken OS installed on it, I mean =p No, really, though: check that the NT box isn't dropping any packets (I don't remember exactly, but go find TCP/IP settings and find a Security tab after clicking on an "Advanced..." button, or some bs).

Well, about a week ago here I plugged in a new host on my home network, but that shouldn't affect yours in any way =p Sorry, I'm being a smartass today.
