Network Connection Is Faster More Stable On XP Than On 7
Aug 26, 2011I've recently moved into Windows 7 Service Pack 1.First thing (and foremost, right now) I've noticed is how unstable and slow my Internet Connection is; Windows 7 reports my Wi-Fi router's signal strength as "Average/Good", whereas in XP it's always "Excellent". I can't browse at all, or log into Windows Update to get fixes; the connection drops erratically.What offline tweaking can I do to fix this situation? I use a REALTEK RTL8185 54M Wireless LAN Network Adapter to connect to a D-LINK WBR-1310 Wi-Fi router.

Nov 18, 2009I have 2 pcs on a LAN with a 100mbps switch, and they are also directly connected via Gigabit crossover. When both ran XP, I could uncheck "File and Printer Sharing" on each 100mbps connection, and they used only the direct crossover at 1gbps.
Now, with Windows 7 on one and XP on the other, copying files uses the switch by default, even with "File and Printer Sharing" unchecked. This is ridiculous. It should be able to see that there's a wide open connection that's ten times faster sitting completely idle. I even think that the "Local Area Network 2", not the primary.
Any ideas?

Jun 19, 2012I have been trying to set up a router at my girlfriend's apartment. I first tried a Linksys router that I had brought from home. I hooked it up from the wall port, to the router, to my computer. I was able to access the normal Linksys wireless setup page at 192.168.0.1 and set up a network fine. I then unplugged my ethernet cable and attempted to connect to the network and was not able to. If I recall, it 'connected' but there was no internet connection.

Dec 3, 2011I formatted both my laptop and desktop computer. When i did with my laptop, everything was great. Wireless still worked. Of course i have my linksys router connected to get the wireless.
I then formatted my desktop. Its a dell. When i did this, everything seemed great. However, i noticed that if i remove my wireless router and just connect my cable modem wired, it works. However, when i connect my wireless router, then my wireless internet works but my WIRED connection does not work. It has this message that says can't connect.
I don't think this has ever happened before. I mean, there were many times where my desktop got formatted and my wired internet worked and i could not get my wireless connection to work. But never had i had my wireless work and my wired connection not work. The one thing i did this time was after i installed the drivers with my windows cd, i then deleted the old windows file that was about 25 gb.

View 3 Replies View Related'This Device Can Run Faster' Error
Aug 17, 2011Recently, I've started getting an error which says: "Your USB Composite Device can perform faster if it is plugged into a hi-speed port" "The hubs shown in bold type have free ports that can support the HI-SPEED USB device"
It then lists two bolded options for a hi-speed ports: A USB Root Hub with 6 ports, and another with 4. This error occurs on both my Windows 7 equipped Dell XPS15 (which has 2 USB ports) and an older Dell laptop which runs Vista (3 USB ports)
This is shown after my external drive (a seagate model) disconnects from my computer, which usually ends poorly for me, since I typically run Photoshop off my drive.
I'm wondering if these errors are caused by a new USB splitter I bought. It has 4 ports, but the model year and quality of the thing are dubious at best; my webcam and wireless mouse are also typically attached to it, and the webcam disconnects at the same time as the external drive. The mouse still works though, so that's pretty mysterious.
Why Is The Installation Of Windows 7 Faster
Dec 27, 2010I have a question. Why is the installation procedure for Windows 7 much faster when I have my floppy disk drive connected to my motherboard then when I do not have floppy disk drive not connected to my motherboard??? I see when do not have floppy disk drive connected that at the beginning of the installation process, I get to the Windows 7 blue background screen with my mouse curser in the middle of the screen I as now having to wait at least 5 minutes before the Install Windows window appears. The Install Windows window would show up *in less than a couple of seconds* after the default Windows 7 blue background would appear when I have the floppy disk drive connected. Also when I do not have floppy disk drive connected I get the Setup is starting for another 5 minutes later in the Windows 7 install process following by clicking on Install now. Overall the entire Windows 7 install process is much slower when there is no floppy disk drive is connected to the motherboard. Motherboard: Asus P5Q. Questions:
1.Why is this the case?
2.Floppy disk drive technology is rather old technology therefore why would the NEW Windows 7 be searching for this older technology during the install process? Lets face it; most new computers (desktop and aptops) do not have this older technology. Is install process longer with Windows 7 on the newer computers?
3.Is there a means for me to get the same or even faster Windows 7 install process WITHOUT having the floppy drive connected?

Jun 22, 2011I just realized that this forum is for Windows 7 and I happen to be using Xp - so flame away if you like. I think the fundamentals still apply.I have DVDs with data files (inspection data) that I need to copy to the network. I can also copy to a USB2 external drive. The issue is speed. I am using xcopy /s. It is taking almost 45 minutes to copy the DVD to my hard drive. I have over a hundred DVDs. If I was getting paid by the hour this would be a great job!I have try making disk images but the speed is about the same - same for internal HD or Eternal HD. I am using a new dell quad 6500. I realize that the cd read speed is going to be a factor - however after getting the files off the DVD to my C: it takes over 30 min to copy from my machine to the USB drive.

View 27 Replies View RelatedUSB Device Can Perform Faster?
Oct 8, 2012I have an Acer Aspire 5542-5462 laptop (◦CPU/Ram: 2.2 GHz / 3838 MB) w/ Windows 7 and the product details indicates I have four 2.0 USB ports (2 on the right side, 2 on the left). Today I connected my 1TB external "SimpleDrive" hard drive in order to do a backup which I'd done previously but my last one was afew months ago and this time got the same "This Device Can Perform Faster - Your USB Mass Storage Device can perform faster if plugged into a hi-speed port" message as others have. This is the first time I've received this message.Below that is a window with the heading "The hubs shown in BOLD type have free ports that can support the HI-SPEED USB device." and in the window it shows 2 separate "Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller" and under each it shows a sub-heading "USB Root Hub #6 ports# in BOLD TYPE. Under the 1st USB Root Hub it reflects all 6 as being "Unused Port" and under the 2nd USB Root Hub it reflects all but the 5th of 6 as being "Unused Port" and the 5th as "USB Composite Device".I went online to find out about the USB "This Device Can Perform Faster" message and what it meant, along with solutions. I've tried the following:
-Went into the "Device Manager" window and the "Universal Serial Bus controllers" sub-menu which reflects, in order, 2 "Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller", 4 "Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller", 2 "USB Composite Device", 1 "USB Mass Storage Device" and finally 6 "USB Root Hub".Per online instructions I right-clicked on each one and used the "Update Driver Software" #via a "Search online for updates" option# and received a "The best driver software for your device is already installed; Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date" for each and every one.
-Secondly per online suggestions I checked each USB Root Hub and all reflected as running at "full-speed" instead of the optimum "hi-speed" #which was indicated as to what should be showing if using a true 2.0 USB port#.So basically what I'm asking is if I have the current drivers already installed and my laptop's 4 USB ports are all supposed to support 2.0, then why aren't those USB Root Hubs running at HI-SPEED instead of the slower full-speed? Is there something I've missed? Or is there nothing wrong at all?
My Laptop Is Slow At Everything - Make It Faster?
Nov 13, 2011My laptop seems to be really slow. I'm quite sure that my laptop has always been slow, so it's not like it suddenly just got slow. My laptop used to be Vista but was then I updated to Windows 7. To find more details about my laptop click the computer icon next to my username. I would like some suggestions on how I can make it faster as it's starting to annoy me.
P.S I timed my laptop to see how long it would take to turn on then open my browser, it took 5 mins, it may sound short but its not short when you have to wait 5 mins every time you turn it on.
Any Faster Way To Copy 2 TB Data In Windows 7?
Apr 6, 2011Is there any faster way to copy 2 TB Data in Windows (with a USB 2.0 Ported Notebook) other than copy and paste?
Copy and paste would take around:
20 MB/second * 60 1200 MB/minute 1.2 GB/minute
1.2 GB/minute * 60 72 GB/hour
72 GB/hour * 24 1728 GB/day 1.728 TB/day.
Is there any other faster way to do this? or.... As you would see from My System Specs, I have an ASUS G72. Is it possible for me to change one of the USB Pairs from USB 2.0 to USB 3.0?
Integrated Graphics Performing Faster Than ATI?
May 6, 2012My HP ProBook 4730s contains switchable graphics. One of which, is an ATI Radeon HD 7470M, and the other is a generic Intel HD Family. Now, I can assure you that when I switch between cards, they switch properly, and are in the correct order. I have checked with many different methods. Now to the actual issue. In low and medium end games, my Intel out preforms my ATI my miles. For example, in Trackmania United Forever, on my ATI, medium settings, 720p, no AA = 20fps. Intel, max settings, 900p (native res), 4x AA = 60fps.However, if I play Mirror's Edge, these results are inverted, thus proving that the ATI is more powerful.
What I can only conclude is that the ATI is attempting to conserve power by limiting it's performance in low end games. Problem is, I have configured it for max performance in every setting I can find. I just don't get it.
