Can tutorials A to Z in the vista forum apply to 7

[simono]

I seen yesterday that a buddy of mine has windows 7 64-bit. I wanted to do one of my favorite tweaks I learned here. The Change the Maximum Download Sessions in Internet Explorer or all Browsers. I used the 64-bit allotted slot and afterwards checked, and it was ok but, I have many notes that I have taken from this site and was sitting there thinking... This one I just did should be ok but I'm not sure I should try and apply what I have in these notes because, I acquired them from here. He has 4 GB so size tweaks aren't an issue but, is QoS in 7 enabled by default? and is it set at 20% like vista? I had to leave, so I didn't get a chance to look. There having slow download problems and just purchasing this HP system 3 or 4 months ago, shouldn't be having this problem. My mothers has the same set-up and uses it for home use only... as do they. Any ideas? If so, I will have to apply them at a later date because they live some distance away... Thanks

I forgot to ask... I think I read that this allocated bandwidth is used for higher priority downloads like updates from Microsoft. If that's true.. I need to look else-where.

depends how your quality of service on your router is set up. Most of the tweaks apply to windows 7, it is just the method that gets the tweak applied is usually different. If you want windows 7 tweaks go to: Windows 7 Forums for windows 7 tweaks

Ah... Didn't even think of the router. And yea, I got some learning to do but.... love it! Thanks for clearing-up the questions I had and will check out Windows 7 forums.

All the best Katokato,
