Vista to vista networking |

Roy Lambert NLH Associates Team Elevate | Having had the weird problem twice now on the XP notebook I use as my internal server I decided to switch over to a Vista notebook. Roughly the same spec, same RAM etc.
I did a rinse and refresh on both the Vista and the XP machines, nice clean shiny installs and decided this time I'd partition the hard disk into C for programs and D for data. I'm back to using the XP machine. Copying 2.4Gb of data over to the D drive: XP: c7mins Vista: c40mins Speed of opening app and moving around has the same level of disparity. Roy Lambert |

Whats it like sending 2.4gb to an external HD ? > XP: c7mins > Vista: c40mins > I will test the speed of sending to my external HD 7 mins seems way high to me ...... Rita |

Raul Team Elevate | Hi Roy,
Vista did have various file operation slow-downs. Are you using the latest service pack - i think Sp2 is out. Couple of things that might be worthwhile to try: Turn off "Remote Differential Compression' if it's on : should be in Control Panel / Programs and features / Turn on or turn off Windows features and uncheck "Remote Differential Compression" if checked. For over the network copy the "Receive Window Auto-Tuning" can screw things up as well. Running this from command-line should disable that: netsh interface tcp set global rss=disabled netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled My suggestion is to move to Win7 - i've found it to be a lot more usable OS and what Vista should have been. it will likely be extra cost though unless you have a Technet or MSDN subscription.

I'm very glad that I bypassed Vista on my development machine. My new Dell uses Windows 7, and I'm liking it a lot. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
