Another thought.
It could be you client configuration. I haven't got SQL Server on my machine here right now, I can mail you exact details when I get home.
If I remember rightly, there is a client configuartion utility that appears on the SQL Server menu options (from the win95/nt start button).
In here you can set the communications driver to be used between the client and the server. You may be using the general driver, which may try a number of different protocols.
Using the utility, try selecting the IP or TCP/IP specific drivers.

The structure is about 100 bytes, the clustered (Primary) index is the Identity column incremented by one. I have only got to about 300 rows so far before I aborted. Bulk inserting into a temporary table wouldn't work in this case because the tables I am working on at the moment are empty anyway.
