Check for errors on the interfaces that might indicate a duplex mismatch.
What hardware are you using?

Can you tell us what model of Optiplex?  They range all the way from first generation Pentiums through current i7's, some with 3Com, Broadcom, or Intel NICs onboard; the model will tell us a lot about what we're looking at.  It'll also be helpful to tell us about any secondary NICs you may have installed and are using.
