(long post) New system and new tech advice and help.

[osuprowler]

I have some questions in reguards to new technology and also some issues with my system.

I know this is going to be a long post, but I included, all that I could find about my new system specs, a TCP/IP Analyzer log, a DxDiag log, a Hijackthis log, a CPU-Z log, my security tools and maintinance and some additional info. I want those of you who can and will help to have as much info as possible so you can better help me. I hope that makes sense. There is a LOT of info so I will be posting this in two posts.

In this the first post I will list my current system specs and basic info about my last system so you can get an idea of from what prospective I am seeing these issues from one OS and system to the next and my security tools and maintinance routines and some additional info.

Then in the next few posts I will list my security tools and maintinance routines and some additional info, a TCP/IP Analyzer log, a DxDiag log, a Hijackthis log, a CPU-Z log. Plaesae don't get too mad at me for doing it this way.
=================

Here are my current system specs:

Base score 3.0
Determined by
lowest subscore

Model W5243 ~e machines

(BIOS : ) Phoenix - Award Workstation BIOS v6.00PG
Windows Vista (TM) Home Premium Operating
System (6.0, Build 6001) Service Pack 1
System type 32 - bit operating system (I get the idea that my 64 bit processor's supirior qualities are useless on this OS.)

300 watt power supply
(I Have a new 400 watt PS I could install if needed, but i figure a 500 or 600 watt would be a better fit for my system as i add hardware.)

Motherboard
ECS MCP61SM-GM mATX motherboard
2000 MHz system bus

Processor
AMD Athlon™ 64 3800+, 64-bit processor with AMD 64 technology and HyperTransport with 512 L2 ~2400 MHz - score 4.2

Memory
1024 MB Samsung DDR2-667 MHz (PC2-5300) Dual Channel memory (two 512 MB unbuffered modules) - score 3.9
(Actually reads as 896 MB due to 128 MB being allocated to video RAM)
(I am starting to realise 1 GB (512+512) of ram is not really enough on this new system. I will be looking into 2 GB (1024+1024) as soon as I can afford the upgrades.)

Storage
250 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA II hard drive
(Wait! DxDiag and other online scans are telling me I have this: (Drive: C: File System: NTFS Model: ST325031 0AS SCSI Disk Device. WTF? SCSI? NOT ATA?).)
Total size of hard disk(s) 233 GB
Primary hard disk 125GB Free (222GB Total) - score 5.9

Had a EVGA NVidia GeForce 7600 GS 256MB DDR2 8X AGP on my last computer and was going to install it in this computer, but realaised this one is PCI-E and the card is AGP. I would like to find a PCI-E x16 Nv 8800 series at a reasonable price for this system.)

Sound
Realtek High Definition Audio Chipset ~onboard sound (This realtek sound sucks!)
Had this on my last computer (NForce2 Audio Chipset ~onboard sound) it really rocked! Guess I just need to buy an affordable Creative Sound Blaster sound card

DirectX Version: DirectX 10

Media drive (E : ) CD/DVD
16X DVD +/- RW/RAM/CD-RW super multi-format dual layer drive

Network Adapter
Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC Integrated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN

(Averaging at 1500-3500 down/750-2500 up on Speed Guide speed tests)

This system still runs awesome and always has. Just now getting to where it is laggy on the newer higher end games.
=========================

Here is my Security Software and My Maintinance Routines:

SpywareBlaster 4.1 (Updated and All Protections Enabled manualy twice a week,)
Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.6.0.31 (Updated, Immunised and Run manualy twice a week) or when ever i notice a fair system or online slowdown.
Ad-Aware 7.1.0.10 (Updated and Run manualy twice a week,) or when ever i notice a fair system or online slowdown.
McAfee Security Center (Updated automatially daily and Run automatially once a week,) Version of McAfee includes Anti Virus, Firewall, Anti Spyware, System Guards, Windows Protection, Identity Protection, E-Mail and IM Anti Virus and Anti Spyware Protection and Content Blocking.

I also have a NAT router with i guess what is a built in hardware firewall and I am also running windows firewall. I know you are not supposed to be running more than one firewall at time, but i have taken the time to learn how to configure them all to work just fine together.

I delete my temp internet files, temp files, cookies, history and all every day if not twice a day.
I run a scan disk and let it delete the needed files for a nice cleanup at the end of every day.
I run AusLogics Disk Defrag to make my Horribly slow and inefficent (de-evolved from XP) internal defragmentor run better. I run them both once per week or any time I install or uninstall a program or file of fair size.
I also shut down my system and disconnect everything from it once a month and open the case and clean everything with anti-static electronics safe compressed air and a anti-static pen brush to remove any dust and/or buildup from flow ports and fans and pretty much everything. (An yes I not only make sure there are no oils on my skin and touch the power supply box
before i get close to anything, but i also wear anti-electro static discharge cuffs.)

I keep anything connected to my system plugged into power surge protective blocks as well.

Here is a log from the TCP/IP Analyzer:

TCP properties for IP = xx.xx.xx.xx (xx.xx.xx.xx)
Browser/OS = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0;

.NET CLR 3.0.04506)
Notes: Read the Analyzer FAQ if the above is not your IP address.

TCP options string = 020405b40103030201010402

MTU = 1500
MTU is fully optimized for broadband.

MSS = 1460
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which equals MSS.

Default TCP Receive Window (RWIN) = 65700
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 2 bits (scale factor of 4)
Unscaled TCP Receive Window = 16425

In Windows Vista, unless you have disabled "TCP/IP Auto-Tuning", readings in the Analyzer will only show the Current TCP

Window, and the TCP Optimizer will have no effect.
RWIN is not fully optimized (even though it is a comparatively large number). The unscaled RWIN value is lower than it should

be. Also, RWIN being close to and above 65535 does not justify the header overhead of enabling TCP 1323 Options. You

might want to use one of the recommended RWIN values below.

RWIN is a multiple of MSS
Other RWIN values that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
513920 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 8)
256960 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4)
128480 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
64240 (MSS x 44)

bandwidth * delay product (Note this is not a speed test):

Your TCP Window limits you to: 2628 kbps (329 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your TCP Window limits you to: 1051 kbps (131 KBytes/s) @ 500ms

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = OFF

Time to live left = 115 hops
TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF
Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349) = 00000000 (0)

Now for my questions...

1. Why in the heck would they install a 32 bit OS in a system if they are going to install a 64 bit processor? Or else why a 64 bit CPU if they are going to have a 32 bit OS? Either way why would they do this?

2. I really never have 15 apps open at once. I mean I do use this system at home after all, but I do love gaming and getting the most out of them and many are becoming very resource intensive. So is it recomended that i install a 64 bit OS to take advantage of my 64 bit processor and higher RAM capacity?

3. This brings the next question. With 64 bit tech more RAM can be used and I read more is actually needed to run a 64 bit OS. Not sure if it is true, but I read that a minimum of 4 GB of RAM is needed on 64 bit systems, but as I under stand it my MOBO can only support a 1 GB stick of ram per slot and it only has 2 slots so am I limited to 2 GB of RAM and thus can't use a 64 bit OS wich in turn throws the 64 bit design of my processor out the window making it into a glorified 32 bit CPU?

4. Like I sad I belive my MOBO can only support a 1 GB stick of ram per slot and it only has 2 slots. How do i find out for sure how much RAM my MOBO can use total and what size module can be intsalled in each slot?

5. Why are the online manufactureing specs on my system and DxDiag as well as some other online scans telling me I have a SCSI hard drive yet my system it's self and a few other online scans are telling me I have a ATA hard drive and how do I really find out what one i actually have?

6. I have noticed some real lag durring gameplay in even some older games like Neverwinter Nights for example. The game calls for a minimum of an old 800 MHz CPU, 512 MB 133 MHz SDRAM and a GeForce 2 32 MB vid card minimum and recommends a 1300 MHz CPU, 512 MB 266 MHz SDRAM and a GeForce 3 64 MB vid card.
I know i have an onboard video chipset and system RAM allocated as video RAM, but it is a GeForce 6100 chipset using 128 MB of DDR2 667 MHz RAM as well as a 2400 MHz CPU and 1024 MB of DDR2 667 MHz RAM (Well ok 896 MB after the video RAM is allocated, but still...). There is no way this game should be getting choppy or laging even with all the video options maxed out.
This is not the only game I am having lag issues with nut one of the best examples.
So anyone have any idea of what is going on with the poor gameplay experiences I am having considering my system and the info I have provided above?

7. Is there a way to change the provider of my sound on my system other than just buying a sound card? I really have never had good quality out of Realtek on anything. Basically can I get another programming provider like Nvidia to utilise the sound chipset on my MOBO?

8. Ok after Reading the info I provided about my new system and the logs info I provided and the questions I asked what reccomendations are there for getting the most out of my suystem?
I will be using the system mostly for the following and ordered in most used to least:
high end gaming,
downloading/uploading from the internet and my home network,
surefing the net,
playing music,
watching Movies (either streaming or on DVD)

9. Also I am using 600+ MB of RAM and 80% to 100% CPU clock time at startup. After all programs are loaded and it has a few seconds to stablise it drops to 3% to 8% CPU useage, but onlt drops to around 550 MB of RAM still in use. This can't be right at start up can it? I was expecting like 150+/- MB occupied and 0% to 2 % CPU at stableisation after startup. Is there something going on?

10. I can understand the minor difference between the others, but why do I always get so much lower speed test results from Speed Guide than from all the others? I am testing with conditions witin my system the same on each test and I am testing on several of the mirrors/locations and at several times a day over about 8 days to get a good true average from each test site. So distance, time of day, day of week and system settings don't seem to be a factor or reason for SG.net tests to return such slower results. Any ideas? Perhaps the path taken between me and SG.net has a weak (slow) link in the chain (lines)? :P

Thanks to all who reply with help and put up with and went through my insanely long list of info.

I've got a headache

[YARDofSTUF]

Thats not a long post, its a post of way too much pointless info.

Your motherboard supports up to 2 gigs of memory only.

I doubt upgrading to 64bit vista would make it faster for games, though 2 gigs of RAM would be better.

You dont need more RAM to run a 64bit OS.

Some things will see a raid card or onboard raid chip, maybe even serial ata as a scsi interface when its not.

To #7. No. Realtek's newer onboard sound isnt horrible though.

[terrancelam]

1.) Some companies buy one mass licence for their systems. Also they do it because of compatibility issues (some devices still have issues with 64-bit systems, as well as software).

2.)Simple answer, no. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

3.) yes, 64-bit systems can use more then 4 gb of ram, but most board don't specifically support it / the majority of software out there won't use it. Read Yard's post.

4.) See 3

5.) Some software recognize SATA drives as scsi devices. Most likely you have a SATA hard drive in your system.

6.) On-board video usually isn't very good. The video memory is most likely shared from that of the system. If you are getting choppy / laggy game play it may be due to out of date drivers or out of date direct x. Also try upgrading your direct x to the last version (9.0c for XP and 10 for Vista).

And to shorten the rest of the answer here is what I suggest:

Before you do anything, make sure you can undo anything recommend here:

A.) Format the system and start fresh with Windows XP 32 Bit(vista has too many issues I can't solve for you). Use the latest Nvidia drivers and make sure you have all the drivers for your motherboard as well. Key drivers to make sure you have before you begin are:
- Network
- SATA or IDE Drives *SP3 solves most SATA hard drive installation issues, but you can also slipstream drivers into a custom made version of XP
If a fresh install still leaves you with laggy game play, then you problem is hardware related, in which case you are better off buying a new system.

If you have anymore questions, please don't post so much info. Just make ask your questions straight and you'll probably get more answers.

WOW! Attitude instead of any real help and from a mod none the less.

Now before you get pissed and attempt to ban me, wich I really wouldn't care at this point please read the rest to see me point.

Not a single bit of info I listed is pointless. It is all there just in case someone with real experience looks it over and sees something that just does not look right they could have warned me.
Not to mention I posted to this site some minor questions a few years back. I read the stickies before posting and all and included everything that was recomended in a "help with my system" post and even then I still got attitude from a mod because I did not make it "a post of way too much pointless info"
Damned if you do. Damned if you don't.

So i thought I would avoid the same mistake. I even titled a warning that it was long and in the first portion told what kind of logs I would be posting.

How about instead of attitude and skipping answers to several of my questions just skip the posts of info you don't need and be thankfull that it wasn't a post with little to no info and poor ediquite like the far to common:

I haz teh comp and it not be workin yo! Wut zup wit it? Answer NOW peepz!

I have always been kind and respectfull to tech forum members and tried to understand their reasons for what they do. I am at leaset more kind about letting them know what they did wrong. Maybe you been doing this too long and had to deal with to many idiots and need to retire.

Thanks for trying to give a relevant answer to a few of the questions I asked.

By the way. AWESOME terrancelam. Well put about next time reducing the info content. Much more professional and kind as well. I truly thank you.

Thanks for the more detailed answers. I will follow your advice.

[YARDofSTUF]

I'm not a mod.

I gave you help as well.

For the questions you asked a lot of that info is not needed and just bloats the post, like the last half of ur last info post. Take it as constructive critism, not attitude.

Ok I will take it as it was....destructive....oh I mean constructive criticism.

Just kidding. No harm. Just got a bit to intouch with my inner child and it had a pouting fit.

Thanks to all for any help given. It is your time you are spending to help others. No one should be so presumptious as to think any of you live to serve their questions.

What ever time you spend answering what ever of my questions is very kind.

Thank you.

gawd are you going to argue with YOS ? We got tons of flamming in general discussion forum we dont need it here.

YOS is right you posted tons of info with hope that for somebody it would be helpful. Well it isnt.

Even I dont understand some of it.

Read what terancelam wrote and I'm sure somebody will help ya as well.


G'Luck.
