Ive had DSL for the last 6 months or so. it was working fine and now I am only getting like 40 % on my test scores. It some times loads a page and some times it doesnt.
It drops my connection every 10-15 minutes.
I am going nuts? Any one help me how to figure this problem out.
Running DSL MODEM model gt701 action tec
any help?
thanks
EDIT: When the qwest guy came out he did some test and told me he assumed there was damage to the line just behind the wall. He told me he could see if he could get it going. Well he did get it going and said I should be fine.
Could this maybe be the problem?
-
Yes I tried
my video card is
256 mb DDR ATI RADEON 9800XT
-
It shows like little black dotted lines through the blue dell sign. then when it shows windows xp it shows them 2 but once I get into the the desktop they go away.
Then when I try to play a game I get this
ERROR
Program: C:Program FilesWorld of WarcraftWoW.exe
File: C:buildbuildWoWENGINESourcegxCGxDeviceD3dCGxD3dDevice.cpp
Line: 1521
Check AGP aperature.
Then some times it will load and the graphics will be all glitchy.

Ok I got windows Xp in... Now my video card is freaking out. I downloaded the correct drivers.
When I start up my Dell symbol is glitchy and games are glitchy never had the problem before.
Any test I can run to figure out why its doing this.
-
this is what you want right here, these are the drivers for it.
Thanks i'll give that a try.
-
well if you have your service tag you can go to dell and get drivers if there are any.
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx
They have a bunch of drivers... but what one am I looking for?
-
did the drive come with the dell?
Yes it did. I dont have any disk any more. I wanted to format and I cant because of this problem.
I have my service tag for the dell website and thats it.
-
wait thats a ata100 drive, you dont need a driver for that, don't push F6, just continue, windows should find the drive.
Every time I try to do it. it says windows can not find a mass storage device and cant not continue.
I have a Dell Deminsion XPS GEN 2
I hope I can figure this out.

Hi,
I have a computer that I need to format. It has a seagate 120 gb harddrive in it.
I was told i need to press F6 during windows setup and load a third party driver. The problem is I dont have the SATA harddrive driver. can any one help me find this driver?
I tried doing it like I would a regular harddrive and windows says there is no mass storage device.
here is the harddrive i have

Model Number:ST3120026A
Capacity:120 GB
Speed:7200 rpm
Seek time:11.5 ms avg
Interface:Ultra ATA/100
Thanks

hm... do you have another nic that you can test on your computer to see if the nic is the problem?
Well Yes and No. I have one its in my other computer. Whats funny is. I hook my other computer up and it runs fine.The game I play my other computer which is a older one gets great ping that I havnt seen for months with my newer computer.
I am just lost. Maybe a network setting or some thing?
-
usually when you perform a ping test it will show the max min and average ms near the bottom of the results, what are those numbers?
min 86 max 92 average 87
-
to perform a traceroute.
start>run>cmd>ping testmy.net(or any other site you want to perform a traceroute)
I did that and I am not sure how to read the result. I did a ping test also which I understand a bit more.

Also post a speed test?

In device manager>propertys>advanced do you have it set to Auto Config.?
Yes why do you ask?
-
I have the same SiS 900-Based fast PCI ETHERNET ADAPTER and drivers as you and it works fine.
Thanks for confirming. I just updated to the newest version 2.0.1039.1181 and it still seems to be the same.
Seems I am doomed thanks all for helping.
-
what kind of problem are you having?
Well for starters. I am a some what of a gamer. I like to play online games. Which I know alot of things can cause problems with online games. I use to get a great connection on the game. As of the last few months my webpages dont load quick any more. My game that I play skips and lags like crazy. Some times I get droped connection why I am downloading or surfing the net.
I looked my driver information up on my device manager and the driver version is 1.16.0.0
Thanks again
-
Thanks.
Its a SiS 900-Based fast PCI ETHERNET ADAPTER
Spelled just like that. I have not tried updating it.
For the past months I been getting crap connections on every thing I do. I called my cable provider(Comcast) and they said its fine on there end.

I have a computer that is using a onboard NIC. I am getting slow speeds compared to the past. I was wondering if putting in a NIC card in the PCI slot would make a diffrence. Any feed back would be good. thanks.

Hey everyone,
Awhile back i got some help from a few users on setting up portfowarding now i need to set it up a bit diffrent.
First off details: I have a Gigafast E4410 R I have windows xp sp2 installed. I need to set it up for BitTorrent, I have ABC as my bit torrent. I been to portfowarding.com no help. Problem is i am not connectable when using ABC(bitTorrent). I hear i need to goto NAT and special Application but i get stuck from there. I have 3 computers on my network. all i did was get the router plug it in click Automaticly detect settings. I did that on all 3 computers. the only time i can be connectable if i remove the router and plug straight to the computer to the modem
I am told i need to have Ports 6881-6999 open for portforwding on ABC. Please help thanks.
-
Ive had problems with bit in the past. I now use ABC for most of my downloads.

Im not trying to impress anyone . Just proving that you while you were tryin to flame cj sayin he was using
some google *hit to alter his speed test , while all along you have know actual knowledge of the cable system and the way it works
as for getting caught
modems are registered by thier mac address this is how they are traced back to the owner .
the firmware that is loaded allows you to change the mac address and serail # of the modem
and snmp is also disabled.
I could actully be using your mac address and you get busted for what im doing
j/k
Comcast does not require a provisioned modem to have network access and anyone can test this if they have a non registered modem lying around.
Plug in the other modem and set static dns servers
some good ones are 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 internet access will be slow but this will be due to the walledgarden config file. no if you could only change your config file .
does having a post count over 100 or any number for that matter just qalify you to snub your nose at other people when you dont know what your talkin about .
Or is your post count your feeble attempt at an exsistence . Get a life n00b or get informed . Flaming is for idoits And Flaming on a subject you know nothing about just make u look dumber .
Last post here, been interesting but i dont care for lurking forums with my time .
