Question about Albatron KX600S Pro Motherboard
Hi guys, hope you can help me out with this: I have my system running for two years now with Windows XP Pro. No problem ! After upgrading to SP1: no problem ! After upgrading to SP2: very slow internet connection ! I have read articles with lots of people having same problems (terrible slow internet after upgrading to XP2 in combination with KX600) but unfortunately NO SOLUTION. This looks like a MoBo failure. I have done everyting: clean install, you name it. Please help me; I do not know what to anymore.
If you are sure it is a motherboard problem relating to the on board ethernet connection, purchase a PCI slot ethernet card and see if using the card manufacturers drivers are better than the motherboard ethernet drivers. Although i'm not sure how a slow connection is the motherboard problem, it maybe that it's SP2 thats the problem. Have you checked the driver that is used for the onboard ethernet connection, it maybe you need to re-install original motherboard ethernet driver you got with it.

u need to go to the manufacturer of the computer (motherboard) that u have and reinstall the chipset drivers because when u reinstall their drivers what has happened i would say is that when u installed especially if u did a clean install of xp2 it installed windows drivers for the motherboard and all hardware

As said before, this has nothing to do with drivers etc. Believe me I have tried it all. I need a solution for the MoBo failure.
Motherboards has nothing to do with connection speeds.Also the upgrade.I instead try your ISP to check for any issues.If you get a connection and it is slow it can be a sort of things.The MTU is the "Maximum Transmission Unit" used by the TCP protocol. TCP stands for Transmission Control Prototcol. The MTU determines the size of packets used by TCP for each transmission of data. Too large of an MTU size may mean retransmissions if the packet encounters a router along its route that can't handle that large a packet. Too small of an MTU size means relatively more overhead and more acknowledgements that have to be sent and handled. The MTU is rated in "octets" or groups of 8 bits. The so-called "official" internet standard MTU is 576, but the standard rating for ethernet is an MTU of 1500.
