Per my previous mail please can you let me know the details of the
Windows driver versions you are using, where you got them from etc.
I guess you could experiment with disabling the offload settings on the
Windows side. (I think you can do this by right clicking the NIC in
device manager and disabling "Large Send Offload" in the advanced tab.)
Other than that there is nothing to test just yet.
