    I worked with a client last year that was dealing with an ArcGIS
    issue - arcmap would lock up and crash when she added data. I
    suspected a network issue - IT said "that's the way GIS software
    does". Turned out her network card in the workstation was going
    bad....I think we checked in the Control Panel...somewhere...(I'm
    currently on a linux machine). <br>

    can you test the files locally move them to C: ? <br>
