1. Right Click on My Comp. 2. Then Properties 3. Device Manager or Hardware 4. View Resources by connection 5. Find the number IRQ of your NIC that uses the internet.

Under the [386enh] add the following exactly.. 10. Irq[n]=4096, where "[n]" is the number irq of your network card. 4096 is the recommended ram to reserve in kilobytes. 11. So it will look something like this Irq10=4096. 12. Save changes in the file and reboot for effect...
This tweak was from the help of www.speedguide.net. Some people with a cpu of over 500MHz had an increase of only up to 10%. Therefore it is a controversial tweak thats talked about. Hence, most likely they would be online gamers. Be sure NOT to overdue the amount of ram because it will have little or no effect at all. Most of you probably won't notice much effect anyway but it's worth a try. This tweak is assumingly okay for all Windows users. Afterward, go to www.dslreports.com to test your internet throughput and see what they recommend to change your RWIN. (It's under the link of dslrtools on thier homepage).Labels: card memory, network interface card memory |
