When I tried that I wasn't able to make it apply new FSB at startup. Can it be donne?

I did this combination: - first I run: regsvr32 %WinDir%\system32\Macromed\Flash\swflash.ocx /u - then added to HOSTS file: 0.0.0.0 download.macromedia.com activex.microsoft.com active.macromedia.com

Thanks for the replies, the second version truly works for me so I go with that.

Thanks, I've read that page allready and used those values waiting for confirmation just to make sure.

How to do that with IE6, because I really hate popups and banners and most are made with flash, plus I hate clicking no ewerytime a site needs it. Thanks

There are two versions of DNS cache tweaks on the net. One is in form of a *.reg file or a copy-paste directions to create one, the other is in story telling registry editing form. Both of them lacks any serious descriptions about what excactly are those values doing. It's often added that "don't ask why, just tweak it" or something. But I want to know couse the problem is - those two versions are different and both ar quite popular too (so can't decide based on popularity) couse the vide spreaded copy-paste h4xx0r don't-ask-why webmasters don't bother to look what thei're pasting on their site <- I could be wrong. Here's the two versions and I want to know which one is "THE ONE" _______________________________________________________ 1) Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters] "CacheHashTableBucketSize"=dword:00000001 "CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180 "MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000fa00 "MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000012d 2) ...go in the registry to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters and modify "CacheHashTableBucketSize" to 384. Don’t ask me why… Then find "CacheHashTableSize" and change that to 64000 for no apparent reason, modify "MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit" to 301, and then change the perfectly good "MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit" to a very inadequate value of 300... ________________________________________________________ Now the diferences: "CacheHashTableBucketSize"=dword:00000001 - is in decimal 1 vs 384 "CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180 - is in decimal 384 vs 64000 "MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000fa00 - is in decimal 64000 vs 301 "MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000012d - is in decimal 301 vs 300 In those two versions values got changed to each other and 301 is spelled to 1 or something, I don't know, maybe You know.

UP I'd like to know if there is any freeware program that changes FSB within Windows XP.

up Any new information about subject would be nice. In many places it's recommended to set it as small as possible though why and what happens when the limit is exceeded? For ATI Radeon videocards dword:0xfffffff was presentetd as "atitweak" wich is a bit controversial couse in decimals it's 4294967295, thats like ~5377 times bigger than my original 798720.
