If you use an Intel PRO/10GbE LR or an Intel PRO/10GbE SR adapter on your Windows Server 2003 computer and you have TCP segmentation offload enabled on this adapter, transferring files on your network may result in corrupted files.
This behavior occurs because the remote file I/O function in the driver does not work properly when TCP segmentation offload is enabled.
When the adapter receives a request to transfer a lot of data, TCP segmentation offload segments the data into smaller packets, but improperly stops processing before all the data is sent, corrupting the file.
To troubleshoot this problem:
1. Start / Run / ncpa.cpl / OK.
2. Right click the network connect that uses this Intel adapter and press Properties.
3. On the General tab, press Configure.
4. Select the Advanced tab.
5. Select Offload TCP Segmentation.
6. In the Value list, select Off.
7. Press OK.

NOTE: To enable TCP segmentation offload, repeat steps 1 - 5, select On, and press OK.
