Sorry about that, I read 11mb/s (which you meant 11MB/s) and didn't read in the parens which is obviously there. I thought you had wireless, which is 11Mbps, my mistake. But still, 20MB/s is probably about all you are going to get, unless you are getting more on the Windows side which I doubt you are.

How would I go about checking how much I get in windows?

Well, in NT you would use perfmon (Performance Monitor) after turning on the disk performance counters "diskperf -N". Does XP have a perfmon utilitity? If not, I am sure there are many disk performance monitoring utilities out there that you can install and run.
