Switeck Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Troubleshooting often starts with verifying that you're using reasonable speed settings...as insane speed settings can mimic ALL kinds of other problem causes.Speed Guide (CTRL+G) and xx/512k upload setting seems the best guess for your connection.Go into Preferences (CTRL+P) in µTorrent and under General try the Windows Integration at the bottom. Click the box that says "Associate with .torrent files". You may want to check the box that says "Check association on startup" also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Save the torrent file to your hard drive somewhere.Run µTorrent.Then try to double-click on the torrent file on your hard drive from Windows Explorer.Does that at least start the torrent in µTorrent?

Switeck Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 Actually Switeck is not my last, first, or middle name. But it is vaguely similar to my last name. 17 torrents at once is definitely too much for your connection. Are most of them actually queued (like they should be) instead of actively trying to fight over your limited bandwidth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
