Raos

ever thought that your hard drive might be a little full?

Raos

because even before you select where you save file to, you already download a small portion of it. it starts 200 locally to catch up with what it already downloaded

Raos

Is the game still being made?

if so im in

I'm too good in CS, kill anyone easy (cept snipers

)

Raos

You might want to apply the corresponding speed patch for your OS first.

Oh, and install the vtcp fix also.

Raos

I'm sure you can check your modem manufacturer's site, and they should have a page explaining your modems light status.

Raos

Seriously, if you kinda think about it, allocating RAM shouldnt hurt. As long as you didn't allocate the majority of it

Raos

Personally, I found the RAM allocation to the NIC pretty much worked. I tested it without it, downloading the Directx8 SDK, a couple of times, recorded throughput, and again with it.

Yes, I clear cache each time.

I found a max 80KB/sec increase :P

Still, I'm not sure if it's really working, but ...

Raos

as prompted for name, Flay (Speedguide.net Team) was input. I'm very sure I have this right. As when I start console, user name would read Flay (Speedguide.net Team).

unless of course, thats incorrect

Raos

Yeah, I have the name setup like that.

I've started yesterday morning though. I'm not sure if Im credited.

Raos

I am using the console version under windows. I have entered team name and my name in the configs. But I am not seeing any stats of my units I completed, and I wonder if they are even getting sent. Yes, I have units completed

TCP options string = 020405b4010303020101080a000000000000000001010402

MTU = 1500

MTU is at optimal value

MSS = 1460

Maximum useful data in each packet = 1448, which is less than MSS because of Timestamps, or other TCP options used

Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 256960
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323 ...

Raos

Average, it's still better than mine. Can't do anything about it though...

Raos

About a month now, I've been receiving heavy packet loss everyone once in awhile (15-30 mins interval?). This occurs greatly while in game servers. And this applies to all servers I been to. My settings and such are fine, as I've been using the same even since before this trouble.

I would be ...

Raos

Really, there is no such thing as uncapping.

Raos

There is no such thing as uncapping, you're just imagining things

Raos

I dunno, but lets have a little poll.

What do you think is the best firewall? Consider the detectability, ease of use, price, ect.

Now, vote for what you think is the best.

Raos

Only problem is that there is that annoying pop up about wether allow a connect through for a certain proggie, sorta like Conseal

Raos

Hmm, which should I run? BlackICE or ZoneAlarm? Both are pretty good.

Raos

JUST READ
I dont think setting it to 8 megs is better, cuz it wont take advantage of ALL the 8 megs, so you are just wasting some ram that isnt even being used, so maybe 4 megs is best already. And to prove this, I tried both values, and the 4 megs inproved and boosted my download speed, and if I ...

Raos

nono, you're think of of the "ComIRQbuffer" tweak.

Raos

I dont think setting it to 8 megs is better, cuz it wont take advantage of ALL the 8 megs, so you are just wasting some ram that isnt even being used, so maybe 4 megs is best already.

Raos

Yep, its a nice speed boost

Raos

I have a Asus P2B-F mobo and a 128MB ram, pc100, and the best I can achieve is 517 MHz on my Pentium 3 450 stable, I need more voltage I guess, yes I have cooling. So does anyone know how to up the volts on this board? maybe an alternative solution?

Raos

UPDATE

Dispite what I said before (dont use the fix yet ect) It just turned out to be a bad day for my isp, what I said before about pings and packetloss is lowered is true, I played some games and downloads were better than before (patched). Soooo, if MS keeps discovering all the faults in TCP ...

Raos

Yeah, also I guess the fix also fixes the retransmissions so there are less retrans and so lag time will drop.

Raos

But really, I dont get it,

if it fixes a math problem (which should be good) why does it have slight negative effects?

Raos

Phillip, I suggest you remove it from the site incase of others using it, trust me, it didnt turn out good.

Raos

question, how do i remove this? I'm on windows 98

Raos

OK, (on win 98) after more intensive testing, it proves that this fix was a bad bad bad mistake, packet loss was more spikier, but pings were great (not sure why) but after that, I conclude that you shouldnt use this.

Raos

Ok, I'm gonna do a little more testing to see if this DOES actually help or just useless.

WARNING, DO NOT INSTALL THIS YET, CUZ I THINK IT MAY ALREADY MESSED MY COMPUTER UP FOR ITS SLOWER DOWNLOAD RATE

Raos

Ok, I installed the thing hoping to fix my packet loss problem.

First here are the comparision of before and after.

Before:
UDP Statistics

Datagrams Received = 34205
No Ports = 83028
Receive Errors = 14
Datagrams Sent = 29487

After:
UDP Statistics

Datagrams Received = 51344
No Ports ...

Raos

Yep, that good alrighty.

Raos

I think they prolly locked it, Im in Richmond BC

Raos

Oh f*ck, I ran that thing like 8 times......

I think I'm dead....

Raos

Yes, you need cooling, because changing the FSB (front side bus) you actually overclock basically everyithing in your computer.

Raos

Please help?? Anyone?

Raos

THE GODDAMN FAN DONT WORK

Raos

Also, do i just plug those bare ends into 2 the 4 holes of the wierd 4 plug that is white??

Raos

But this is the main problem, both the fan wires are black.
