courtneymalone.com — My previous roommate figured out a way to fix the confirmed issue with Vista that drops your network speed to an unbearable level while playing audio. To fix it, he removed an unnecessary service dependency by editing the registry and rebooting.

Can someone confirm this is a fix?

Yes, it is. If you don't believe me or my previous roommate and friend, just check the comments on his blog post of the people thanking him for it working.

doesn't that service control the throttling? and If you turn it off aren't you at risk of having high network traffic making your videos judder?Also, is this last dialog really Vista's copy dialog? <a class="user" href="http://courtneymalone.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/working2.jpg">http://courtneymalone.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/working2.jpg</a>It doesn't seem to tell you what the file your copying is called.

A fix so you can play sound and have a good network perfomance... I think the 'Wow' starts now.

woah that has happened to me when I was downloading some stuff off usenet, and playing some music on winamp at the same time. I knew it wasnn't my computer, because its an Asus G1S, with 4gb of RAM. Bioshock is about the only thing that makes it go to full performance.
