It's still not working. But I appreciate the input. Oh well. I am thinking of buying a new hard drive with more room and doing a clean install of XP. Thanks again for the suggestions.

I have tried everything I can think of including using the patch to revert the registry and ever since I did the web page loading tweak alot of pictured don't load. I get an 'x' instead and "click here". This is very evident on MSN's home page. If anyone has any suggestions, I would really ...

I will give it a shot! Thanks!

How do I lower the max server values, in Cablenut?

Since following the registry tweaking instructions for Internet Explorer my webpages do load a bit faster. But the page doesn't load correctly. Many pictures don't load. How do I correct this. How do I change the registry back? Do I have to uninstall and reinstall Internet Explorer? Any suggestions ...

Sorry about that...had told a friend about the safe mode and he didn't indicate that it made a difference...my bad. DMA is enabled. Thanks for your help though!! Sorry again.

I installed update. I hope this isn't something I should have mentioned earlier...but I only see the MS-Dos compatibility messages when I am in safe mode. Does that make a big difference? Because I am still seeing them after update.

By the way, how do I find out if DMA mode is enabled on my drives ...

No occurences of that string, but will try updated drivers.

No yellow or red marks, but I do have a VIA Bus Master controller and Microsoft says I may get such problems...that I should update the driver but VIA says "Users with hybrid chipsets (with a VIA southbridge and AMD northbridge for example) should obtain drivers from their motherboard manufacturer ...

Windows 98SE.

I am getting messages on my performace tab that indicate I have a driver windows does not recognize that is causing it to run in MS-Dos compatibility mode. How do I find out which driver it is? Also how do I find out if my pc is running with DMA activated or if my motherboard is even compatibile ...

Up to 768Kbps/128Kbps. Verizon DSL. By the way, setting IE6 back to defaults didn't help pics load. How do I change registry back to default setting? Thank you for your help.

I really appreciate the suggestions. I will try them. The tweaks I was referring to were maybe cablenut settings;MTU, etc. I have seen other people get some info before on things that might help speed on downloading or surfing. Any suggestions would be really appreciated.

I recently did your registry tweak with 98se. Seems to be causing more problems than it's solving. Many pics don't load. How do I change it back to default? Also are there any other tweaks I can do with regular DSL? Last thing, does anyone know of a good Registry fixer and/or Windows Optimizer? Any ...

Justy FYI. I finally broke down and bought a new Siemens Ethernet card. And the DSL works fine now!! No problems at all. Must have been a defect in the old card! I still don't know exactly why the Cable would work with the card and DSL not, but oh well. Problem solved! But thanks for all your help ...

I tried that, but no ***ing luck!! I even hooked up the modem to my friends laptop (he's running Windows 2000), on my phone line.....no problem at all. Modem started working immediately on startup, decent connection speed of 580K. I am about to give up on this thing. It just doesn't make any sense ...

Verizon is my DSL provider, OS is 98SE, my advertised speed is up to 768Kbps/128Kbps.

Analyzer results:
TCP options string = 020405ac01010402

MTU = 1492
MTU is optimized for PPoE DSL broadband. If not, consider raising MTU to 1500 for optimal throughput.

MSS = 1452
Maximum useful data in each ...

I believe everything is set as it should be. I don't see any button saying default settings for TCP/IP. Should I remove network neighborhood and dial-up networking and reinstall them? How would I do that? I don't know if there is anything left over from Roadrunner. How can I check that?

yes, I have a user id and password, but I thought it was just for my email account. When I have tried to use their cd that came with the modem to set up my account, it just says their may be a network connection problem, after I give it my userid and password info.

OS is 98se, no firewall, no router, I think normal DSL, but how do I check that? It's Verizon DSL.

I have had Roadrunner cable modem for a couple of years now with no problems. It still works great! But Verizon DSL is cheaper. So I decided to give it a try. My account has been activated for nearly two weeks now and I have never been able to connect. They show no traffic on my lines. They even ...

well I am connected directly, not through a router. I don't think I can get to the DSL modem's status page. It is a Westell Dual Connect modem.
