Hello wilfman,

This is what i was told.
NCU 7.50 will have a fix for this.

Till then see if this helps:

1.Take a full data and system state backup ( Very Important).
2.Start -> Run -> Regedit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet00x\Control\Class\{xxxxx972}
"xxxxx" will vary based on your setup.Locate the parameters for the teaming setup.
3.Add an entry of "receivePacketCoalescingHighWaterMark" as a DWORD value decimal to xxx Where xxx is 256 (Default value for Windows 2000) or 128 (Default value for Windows 2003) as applicable.
