I joke that some ATX cases are only rated for certain > 100tx transfer rates. And another note, I'm fairly inclined to think it's the switch itself. The 100mbps and full-duplex LEDs are on for all the nodes that support it, and the switch was brand new, and a fairly "high end" model (Linksys Workgroup Switch, 8 port). I would hope that networking hardware wouldn't be half-way defective right out of the box like that...
