Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Packets Capture Problem on a Multi-processors system with Wirs

I am having problems with capturing packets on a multi-processors system. Below is the system configuration.
 
I saw a lot of packets with "TCP ACKed lost segment" and was not able to find the TCP packets that I knew existed in the capture window.
 
I checked WinPcap FAQ. It is stated that starting from ver 3.0, the WinPcap works on SMP machines. So I think I have the correct verison of WinPcap.
 
Any suggestions or advise on how to troubleshoot my problem with capturing TCP traffic will be appreciated.
 
Thanks
Raymond
