    OK, if you are wanting a larger one just click on this one. But clean out  your temp files first before clicking as it takes you directly into the test. The 12meg file. Enjoy.  :grin2:

    Okay...now you have to gargle for 10 minutes with salt water while standing on one leg while touching your nose with your left index finger.  Oh...wow...almost forgot....don't forget to close your right eye (VERY IMPORTANT)......

    okay okay.....I was just kiddin about the salt water part...but fun wasn't it?  :2funny: :2funny:

    How to cancel your AOL account

    Plain and simple...I would like to cancel my account please...simply inform your bank account about the same and if all else fails go back earlier on a new phone call and simply say...I'LL BLOW YOUR FU*KIN BRAINS OUT!!! Thankyou and have a nice day

    Um...you probably don't want to say those exact words....that would be bad....actually very bad....most companies that deal with the public via phone now have these things called the "magic" button.....  It's only used in times of threats, bomb threats and other neato stuff like that.....you would be honestly amazed at how quickly you can get a response to one of those threats when that button is pushed......in fact...you might want to change your underwear BEFORE you say that.....cause you might not have a whole bunch of time to do that afterwards..... :2funny:

    Ok, here would be my updated order

    CPU         Intel Core 2 Duo Conroe E6400 2.13GHz FSB 1066, 2MB CPU

    Memory       2048MB DDR II 667 Memory 240 Pin (Major Brand) (1024 x 2) (special)

    Mother Board ASUS P5LD2 R2.0 Mother Board

    Hard Drive 1 Seagate 250GB 7200RPM 16MB Cache Serial ATA

    Hard Drive 2 Seagate 250GB 7200RPM 16MB Cache Serial ATA

    Optical Drive 1  LG 16X DVD RW +- Dual Layer

    Video             ASUS EN7300 GS GeForce PCI E, 256MB Turbo Cache DDR, DVI

    Audio             Onboard Audio

    Network Card Onboard Network Card

    Case             Lian-Li PC61 ATX Silver Aluminum Mid. Tower (black)

    Upgrading the motherboard was just too expensive (150$)

    Also, I plan this computer to be in use for the next 4-5 years, which is why it is rather higher end now.

    I personally like it.....good choice on the Seagates...you won't regret that change trust me!

    OK, I never use the smart  test. Just click on the "Largest - 2992 kB ". That should do it. You are filling up your cache while you are testing with the SmarTest. Just try that and see. :cool2:

    Again paste your results.  :wink2:

    You never use the smart test huh?  Now I could say something right about now....but I won't....I can't.....eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek it's killing me.......ohhhhhh the pain.............I can resist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i had basic dsl from sbc dsl that topped out at 1.5 Mbps and now i have sbc yahoo elite that tops out at 6 Kbps and ive been averaging beteween 2.75 Mbps and as high as 5.5 Mbps per second but when i try a large file download test it stops and thats the only thing that jams up any ideas?

    when i take the mutli easy test that goes from small file to big one i stop on the 3rd one at 73% what gives?

    Are you by some chance using AVAST antivirus?  If so disable it and try again and let us know....

    i agree with you go with the Seagate drive, personally like maxtor, but hey its Seagate now.

    The Seagate branded drives for the most part come with 5 year warranties whereas the Maxtor do not (go figure)....I have had wayyy too many Maxtor and WD drives die right at about the warranty time expires....whereas I still have an old Seagate ST225 thats just a purrin away with a specific task I gave it a long time ago....yes...I still have one....

    i'd drop 1 harddrive and go with a faster GPU (if you do games) or a bit faster CPU (always nice thing..)

    250GB is enough, for me anyways..

    One can never have enough hd space....remember...as your drive fills up...your access to the information degrades...so its always best to keep your drive half full or less....

    I have managed to fill 1 Terrabyte of space so far...so 500gb is a great place to start.

    :::::::::::::::::.. Download Stats ..:::::::::::::::::

    Download Connection is:: 2819 Kbps about 2.8 Mbps (tested with 5983 kB)

    Download Speed is:: 344 kB/s

    Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (Server 1)

    Test Time:: 2006/11/06 - 3:00pm

    Bottom Line:: 49X faster than 56K 1MB Download in 2.98 sec

    Tested from a 5983 kB file and took 17.39 seconds to complete

    Download Diagnosis:: May need help : running at only 53.33 % of your hosts average (Cox.net)

    D-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-0TUOY9IM7

    User Agent:: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; InfoPath.1)

    this is the most recent..

    2.8 Mbps now..

    still now much as i was anticipated

    Okay...look at your provisioned rates....you are within specs with the provisioning you have given above.....

    This must be some low end plan that Cox has because their upper tiers rock.  My suggestion is you call em back and see if they can let you try their normal speeds for a month to see which one you will stay with....they probably will.

    BTW your signal levels are also good...no worries there.

    Upstream

    Downstream

    SNR

    Receive Power

    Flaps/Insertions

    Once I get that we can try a couple of things...
