New Tweak

I can't guarantee this will work for everyone, but for me and a others that have tried it, it works great. This tweak will help web pages load faster, not a great effect on downloads, but web surfing will be faster.

Navigate to this registry entry and change the following settings:

For XP & 2K

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\ServiceProvider

For 98, 98SE & ME

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP\ServiceProvider


On the right for ALL OS's change these entries: (ALL values are HEXIDECIMAL)

DnsPriority - 7
HostsPriority - 6
LocalPriority - 5
NetbtPriority - 8

Write down the current values PRIOR to changing them in case it doesn't work so you can revert back. To change the value right mouse click on the value and select modify and enter the values above once you have done all of them reboot to take effect and see how fast your pages load.



:) :D :)

Web pages are loading much faster. Thanks mnosteele!

In win98,,, when I looked at the values.. it states they are binary values??? Are you saying just replace these values with the numbers provided??? scuse my ignorance..:D

Thanks lobo,, I saw this and was ready to tweak away.... I will try when I Upgrade....

I did not see that, try it, you can only get blue screen if_______________________________:) :) :)

thanq it works great

hmm.. sorry for my ignorance, but I can't seem to input those numbers in windows ME :

DnsPriority - 7
HostsPriority - 6
LocalPriority - 5
NetbtPriority - 8

It doesnt let me put the - 7, for example.

edit: If I type the number 7, for example, windows automaticly converts it to : 70 p

is this good?

im sorry to ask this but.......

how do you get into

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic
es\VxD\MSTCP\ServiceProvider

Start - run and type regedit.:D

Just a bit of Info
Actually this tweak is not new,it was featured on the now closed Tweakfiles site.
I got it from there 3 yrs ago and still using it.
:D

Been around longer than that, but I just discovered it, so it's new to me and everyone here. So what your saying is, you knew about it and held out on us:( , why would you do a thing like that.;)

Hey minosteele no disrespect, but I forgot allbout it until you had posted it.;)
