robinhood007 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 I have read other threads about Utorrent being slow with XP Service Pack 3. A lot of times it has been dismissed but I have 2 computers 1 with XP (original) and 1 with XP SP3. I format them quite regularly and ALWAYS the following is consistent. With XP (original) I can get up to 440kb's with XP SP3 70kb's Max. I have tried loads of things to fix it with no success. The problem is not:-a particular software that i use-firewall set up-open ports-internet connection-the version that i use-or anything trivial like thatThere must be a load of people with the same problem. This problem has been consistent for about a year now. I waited to write this for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 What internet security software DO you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinhood007 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Like i said the problem is nothing trivial like that. I use AVG and sometimes nothing at all. It doesnt affect it in the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 <-- where's the complete list of information that this requests then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinhood007 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Dont know what t tell you. If i do a clean install of XP SP3, and i dont install any software, and i dont change the configuration in any way, Utorrent is slow. Its like Utorrent just doesnt like XP SP3.

Firon Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 SP3 broke a lot of security software, causing all sorts of weird problems.And you can't just use utorrent as is. You have to use the Speed Guide and forward a port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinhood007 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Check my first comment, Ports are open. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 You still haven't provided the information the thread requests. Refusal to do so means you don't actually want to troubleshoot this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Doesn't Opal Telecom DSL/Talk Talk in the UK really cripple uTorrent/BitTorrent traffic?Or you're using really awful networking drivers/hardware on the "slower" computer?(wireless + USB for instance is usually extremely bad.)Without the requested information, even if you think it's "perfectly correct", we can only assume the worst.
