Try this simple registry edit. Worked for me, restored my
internet speed from a crawl/nothing back to blazing.
THANK YOU STEVE!! He says:
--""I applied SP4 to a workstation running Win2000 Pro and
network performance just dropped through the floor - took
minutes to do even the simplest thing.
I've tracked it down to the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\
Parameters\Tcp1323Opts
I had to set this to 3 on this machine (to enable scaling
and timestamps) to solve an earlier problem but this
setting with SP4 just seems to grind things to a halt.
If I change it back to 0 (or remove it) then performance
is normal again (except my original problem - why I needed
timestamps in the first place - is back!).
Has anyone else seen problems with this registry key and
SP4?
Cheers,
Steve"
"Seems to be scaling that causes the problem, setting the
value to 0 or 2 is ok - 1 or 3 causes the problem... 0
(disable RFC 1323 options) 1 (window scale enabled only) 2
(timestamps enabled only) 3 (both options enabled)"
I changed the setting to zero (as opposed to removing it),
restarted, and voila!
Wow. I can't believe this worked. I wish I understood
it. Good Luck! And THANKS STEVE!
