I really thought the QoS thing would be it. Maybe there was some other
thing to do, configuration-wise, to make that do its thing properly?

If you could reproduce this behavior across the network I would tell you
to get out a packet analyzer (ethereal or some such) and sniff the
traffic to learn more. Are there any programs that can sniff local TCP
traffic on win2k?
