Q: After upgrading the operating system from Windows 98 to Windows XP, I feel slower than before when I use broadband Internet access. The software and drivers are installed properly. What's the solution, please?
A: You can try the following methods.
1. First look at the driver version and application software compatibility issues, you can go to the device provider Web site to download the latest driver to install.
2. You can use Windows XP settings to maximize bandwidth utilization, to do this: Select Start → run on the system desktop, type and run the Gpedit.msc command in the Open dialog box that appears, and then open the Group Policy window, and then from the Manage templates To find the network project, there is a "QoS packet scheduling" item, when expanded, you can see a "Limit reserved bandwidth" Item under the Settings column on the right side of the window, and double click on the item to see that the "bandwidth throttling" default is 20%, and you can simply modify the parameter to Enabled and limit the bandwidth "The value to" 0% "will allow maximum bandwidth utilization.
