I just received my new budget build from AVADirect yesterday with Vista Home Premium installed on it and as soon as I tried to download anything from game demos to torrent files i noticed a significantly slower download speed than my old XP Pro system. The fastest it could download a 1Gb file was just under 100KB/sec. A friend said to go to the run menu and disable the Autotuning in Vista and that had no effect on the download speed. Im using a Netgear router that I never once had problems with on the old system. Any help would be much appreciated, I'm not as computer savvy as most the users on these forums but I think I could handle minor fixes.
