Switeck Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Did you run Speed Guide (CTRL+G) and choose a setting there based on your maximum upload speed in kilobits/sec?Chances are, xx/512k is the fastest likely setting for your connection.Have you tried Ultima's Troubleshooting Guide here:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakis Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 thank you ill search for 1.6 now.... also if i uninstall 1.7 and install 1.6 what will happen to partially downloaded torrents ... will continue downloading from the percentage they were at?

Firon Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Read this and follow the instructions. It's not hard. http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 To downgrade µTorrent, which I don't recommend ...as only v1.7 supposedly supports Vista properly... you'd have to do migration guide.Alot of the partial downloads will be lost.

Shakis Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 i found this link while searching through the forums http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=21178this sounds like the sorta problems im having. i have amd x2 nvidia too. Although utorrent downloads fine and good speeds too it just killed all connections for anything else web browsers other computers on the network but an online game i was playing was relatively unaffected.i also found an article about zone alarm and utorrent and how utorrent goes on the blink when run with utorrent and cause it to crash when i try to shut it down making it impossible to "End Process Tree" etc .... how can i fix this without turning off/uninstalling zonealarm?

Firon Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Zone Alarm is the worst firewall in existence. It is known to be problematic with a -lot- of software, not just µTorrent. Uninstall it and install a better firewall, such as Outpost or Sygate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
