Well, apparently its not the switch. After 3-4 days of 1.0Gbps, now its dropped down again to good ol 100 Mbps. The new cables are on the way from Monoprice, so we will see. Just odd, how it can be going fine for a couple of days and then it drops. You would think if it was a cable issue or...

No, using the Netgear NIC right now. Sorry, I know it gets confusing, I was just going crazy trying to find something that worked. Anyway so far the connection is 1.0Gbps with the linksys switch out of the equation. If that is the answer, what am I going to do with these other two connections...

Just for the record, the switch I'm using is a Linksys. Netgear is the current NIC I'm using.

Yeah, that was dated day win7 came out, I got those already. Don't forget one of other computers has marvell onboard and doing fine. Just to let you know I took the switch out of the equation and just using the router now. Just seeing what happens. So far it has been staying at 1.0Gbps.

I have also had issues with two wireless machines (g and N) dropping the connection off and on, but just attributed that to immature win7 drivers. Now I'm starting to wonder. Thanks for all the help.

Only thing though, this switch was tried with 2 different brand NIC, linksys and netgear. And also the onboard Marvell Yukon. All same result.

Ok, interesting since I have been posting the connection has blanked out 3 times, like a split second each and then come back. Wonder if it could be a router issue. Guess, I will go on monoprice and get some new cables and go from there like you said.

No, not the same model. Are you saying connect the two computers together with the patch cable. Then what?

Ahhhhh. I am about to take a shit on this computer. Right after the above post I checked my connection again and bam...100Mbps. So I gathered myself, straighted up the office after I threw a couple of things, and unhooked everything one by one. I had one computer registering 1.0Gbps and the...

JackMDS, I unhhooked everything from the network and just had that machine and one other. It was doing fine at 1.0Gbps. So apparently there is something on the network. I slowly hooked things back up and it appeared that one of the cables is a cat5 coming out of the switch. I left that one...

Cannot wrap my head around this, so if anyone can help that would be great. My setup is as follows: cable modem going to my Linksys wrt600 router which has several ports. One port to self built win7 prof. pc and using marvell yukon onboard ethernet and connection says 1.0 Gbps. Another...

It seems to be working now. Carry on.

Yeah, mistaken about the icons dissappearing, but I will try to check always on top for the sidebar and see if that helps. But yeah, whenever you minimize an application, the thumbnail view will not show the realtime view, just a snapshot.

Here is something I don't understand. Say I have 4-5 programs open. Some are minimized on the taskbar and some are not. If you hold the cursor of one of the minimized programs it gives you a snapshot thumbnail, but if you hold the cursor over one that is just behind another program in the...

I was just about to post this. Yeah it's still doing it for me as well. The info shows up, but no cover art. Something must be wrong with the metaservices.
