I have been reading about folks having difficulty with transitioning between pages, opening imported labs, etc. I have tried some of the suggested changes but must admit I don't understand it all. Here is my set up.
ISP is from Adelphia cable which come into the building, to our modem and then to a switcher to the Dell Computer (Pentium D processor 2.66 ghz with 500 mg ram) which is used as the server. This is then connected to our wireless router switch and then to three lenovo lap tops (1.83 ghz with 1 gb ram). Each room is wired but we usually use the wireless system....less cumbersome with laptops. The problem is with the laptops and loading between the "most recent encounter" page and the "imported items". This can take up to 10-15 secs to transition. The real problem is opening the lab. Our lab is imported from labcorp and opening the results takes the same amount of time. Our radiology reports, consults, etc are scanned in using acrobat. Opening them isn't too bad.
None of these problems occur on the desktop Dell. I tried connecting the laptops through ethernet to the network and turned off the wireless. Some improvement in general (going form page to page within AC) but not much improvement opening labs from Labcorp.
There was a thread about this a few months ago but it just kind of petered out. Did anyone come up with a cure for the Labcorp blues? Do I just need more memory? Thanks for any suggestions.
