  1. Very nice, you lucky stiff. Great to have you join the world of real speeds.
  2. Does this work in Vista? How to error-check: 1. Double click the my computer icon on the desktop. The my computer window will open. Right click on Local Disk (C:). Click properties. 2. Select the tools tab. Under the error-checking section click check now. 3. A window will pop up with options check the two boxes then click start. 4. It will say that it will run at the next restart. So restart the computer. This process will take a while (20 minutes). It will reboot itself when it is finished. http://www.testmy.net/t-4257
  3. Good to have you aboard then. Hope you enjoy your stay. Its a lot of fun.
  4. Vista for me has been as stable and reliable as XP was. At first it was way different. But now no different for real.
  5. Well hopefully this puter will hold up a while. So no need for a new one right away. Yeah, it would be interesting though to see how it goes there coknuck.
  6. News flash, no satelite works under those conditons often. And why I switched to EVDO. I like to on at those times also. No way to help with that one. Its just nature of the beast. And welcome to the forum.
  7. Definately the torrents. Before this quad core, my speeds at times almost came to a standstill while D/Ling torrents on a single core. Try this: http://www.testmy.net/t-4257
  8. Ditto. Thank you one and all.
  9. Yes with that custom button you can tweak it some. I myself find that Optimal settings usually work best though. And always remember it takes 2-3 days for all tweaks to settle in fully. Make sure there are no other programs running at the same time.
  10. So what was stuck inside, and how did you get it out?
  11. HEY.
  12. Not what your too expect, but a lot closer for sure. Good. Try to reinstall the TCP Optimizer again. And leave it now.
  13. When yo udo make sure first thing you remove all unwanted programs right off that bat. Like the temp usage Norton. The first thing I kick to the curb. And shut down all not often used programs too. ONly to come up if prompted status.
  14. So this is after a reformat from a virus?
  15. Have youtried it without the router in between to see how it goes without it restricting it? Have you tried with your firewall down just for the test? Is there any programs running in the background? Instant messenger etc... Have you contacted Shaw about it too? If so what did they say?
  16. So that is 20 meg service? Nice.
  17. Or ctrl-alt-delete and bring up task manager.
  18. Wow momma T and coknuck. That was great. I still say this great land was brought forth by gods hand. And we should respect that fact in every thing we do. If not the simple things they have taken from us at least. (damned lobbiest)
  19. Me too, its the only thing worth reading in there. It used to readers digest. But they quit taking that. Cheap skates.
  20. Vista is ok. Took some getting used to. And for me to be able to handle it, that says a lot.
  21. Hey, my girls have subscritions to it. You want I send script renewal to you shug?
  22. Import tax also controls imports. Also why Toyota put a plant here. It was cheaper than the import tax at the time. Raise import taxes again, and that would put americans back to work for real. And why american goods are not cheap in other countries. It makes all the difference in the world. WTO?
  23. Sam Walton's kids started it actually. When Sam was running things he shopped the US for american made stuff. His kids only care about the almighty buck. Sam was a good man, and self made none the less. Americanns are to blame. Why do you think he changed where he bought, he knew americans really cared where it came from back then. Now, they pretty much don't. Never said China is evil. But that does not mean their products are not dangerous.
  24. Post a speed test.
