Copy Speed Over The Network Is Slower That XP SP2 And OS
Jun 20, 2008We have a client with a new Vista Business x64 Workstation joined to a 2003 (native) AD domain. The hardware specs are first class (64GB RAM, Dual Qaud core 3+GHz Intel Procs, Fastest SATA disks available, 2 Uber Graphics card in SLI, Giabit NIC, etc.). This machine must move large amounts of data to a File Server's SAN frequently (hundreds of gigs per upload or download). The problem is uploads and downloads to this file server via mapped drive in Vista take considerably longer than either an XP Pro SP2 or MacBook Pro from THE SAME network jack.
What we have done so far with minimal improvements if any:
1. Disabled active AV scanning on the file server and removed it completely on the Vista workstation (were using Trend Micro).
2. Disabled "Remote Differential Compression".
3. Disabled SMB 2.0 via registry
***at this point the file transfer calculation seemed to start working correctly, previously it would estimate it would take 4+ hours to copy 85Gb of test data when in reality it was finished much much sooner (several minutes but forget the exact number now)*** Client reported some speed improvements at this point but not that great. From the file server during the transfer (when this is the only transfer happening on the network) the Gigabit NIC on the server reports a network utilization of 30-40%......
Installed Os Registry Patch Manually Copy
Mar 23, 2008I'm having trouble enabling AHCI under Windows Vista Business x64. I initially installed the OS with AHCI enabled in the BIOS, but I receive stop code 7B upon reboot. The only way to get the OS to boot is to disable AHCI in the BIOS. The last time I installed the OS, I was able to apply a registry patch and manually copy IaStor.sys (from the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver) into the WindowsSystem32drivers folder. This would allow me to boot and run the system with AHCI enabled, and utilize the Intel Turbo Memory flash cache module I installed. I also made sure that Msahci.sys was set to start on boot as per the instructions at
Now, for some reason, this procedure no longer works. I still receive stop code 7B upon reboot. (Note that I am not able to install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver or the Intel Turbo Memory driver until after AHCI is working. Attempting to do so results in an error message that my system "does not meet the minimum requirements".)I'm trying this on a Dell Vostro 1500 with a PM965 chipset and ICH8 I/O controller hub. This is the contents of the registry file I'm using:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

Copy And Move Paralysis
Mar 23, 2008So what's the deal with the interminable copies and moves with Vista? Can't MS get anything right? There's something going on in the background someplace that hoses file and directory transfers *-on the same computer-*. I turned off the ridiculous indexing for searches, no luck there. I even tried an external command (mv in Cygwin) and it still took too long. I suspect that the files I think are available for plain old copy and move operations are really some demented abstraction - the "files" and "Folders" are merely representations of some bizarre MS database scheme. Rather than just talk to the disk sector in the usual way, a disk request has to first navigate some convoluted maze of really useless internal dependencies. Bet it's related to Microsoft's version of security.

File Copy, Move Between HDD, And Network Machine

I can save layout and selected views of folder but not the thickness of the columns.

Apr 30, 2008It's a Dell Precision laptop running Vista Ultimate SP1 32-bit and it started off being quite snappy when first installed and now it just gets slower and slower everyday. It starts up slower and programs are launched much more slowly than before. I defrag the disk(s) regularly and there are 4GB of RAM so what could be the reason? Yes, there are more programs installed and more disk space actually used over time but why should that slow down the whole machine?

Cut The Crap: Classic Is Slower Than Aero (*).
Apr 13, 2008Cut the crap: classic is slower than aero (*) Ahhh yes.. educating the vistaboys once more.. the cluless mvps and vista-trolls alike. What can I do.. its so ironic that I, who think vista is a bucket of crap, know more than most fanboys about their OS. So here is the lesson of the day:
(*) Classic is slower than aero on machines that are aero glass capable. This is a clear fact that so many have gotten wrong is hilairious. Even tech geeks give this as one of their tips to make vista faster.
If your card doesnt support aero then classic is as slow as with the aero basic theme, and that means absolutly NO acceleration (compared to XP that DID have GDI acceleration that was lighning fast!) But its not faster with classic theme. Its slower........

Apr 14, 2008VISTA SUCKS, I broke down and gave it a try. I have a recent computer, dualcore cpu, 2gigs etc. I went into it with an open mind, I never believe what people say until I try it myself. I expected it to be about 10% slower on benchmarks (gaming), etc. But I figured with a fast computer that 10% might not be missed.
It's so stupid! (unstable/crashy/crappy). My drivers are all up-to-date, etc. I've had more crashes in two days then I did in two years with XP. Games run horribly!I'm thinking I lost more then 10% performance, when things arent crashing With that said.... Goodbye you "sexy dumb blonde" of an operating system... I'm going back to ugly/reliable XP, after only two days...
Download Speeds Much Slower Xp Windows
May 30, 2008I've been getting very slow download speeds on vista and have done everything I could to fix it. I have disabled the tcp auto tuning following this guide, turned off the QoS thing following this guide, turned off my phishing filter and firewall, switched over to a static IP, and maybe some other stuff i cant remember but in the end I still get terrible download speeds compared to my computer that runs XP I went to speedtest.net to make sure I wasnt crazy...Vista: ~750 download XP: ~11600 download the upload and ping were the same.
Both computers are wireless (same distance from router) but I think that my be where the problem lies...I have a linksys wireless pci card and they apparently dont have drivers for my card for 64 bit vista, so I found this post and was able to get a driver to get my card working and get online. Im not saying this is the problem but just throwing it out there just incase it may be.So my question is what could be the cause of my slow downloading and what can I do to fix it?

View 9 Replies View RelatedDownloaded Dreamscene From Windows Update, Slower Startup?
Dec 19, 2008My vista (ultimate x64) is working perfectly, and only one thing bothers me.When I installed vista, and some programs (cc cleaner,winamp..), everything was fine during startup. But, when i downloaded Dreamscene from Windows update, now when desktop shows-the background is still (frozen), and the only thing I can click with mouse is taskbar, and icons on taskbar. Then, after one and a half, or two minutes, the circle on the mouse shows, like its loading something, the background start playing, and then everything works perfectly.
I was looking at programs that starts with windows, but nothing-those are the same programs that were before dreamscene (java, windows defender, roccat drivers, nvcpldaemon, nvmediacenter). When I uninstaled dreamscene, everything was fine again. But, since I want DS, is there a soultion? Is there a manual dreamscene instalation, so that I can try with that-without windows update? Or its not DS, its something else.
IP Address: Manually Changes
May 12, 2009We have some new Visat pc's added to our network and all of them are showing the same problem. What happens is when the users start the pc's they get a message saying the IP address is in use and they have to go and manually change the address to get working. All the pc's are configured with static ip addresses and have been checked to make sure they are on different addresses. Has anyone got any ideas on what is causing this? I have seen one workaround which involved adding some batch files to the startup routine to swap between static and DHCP but I do not want to go down tis route.
