Vista and Microsoft Dynamics GP/ iMIS Users – can work together?

 

By Venketesh Subramony

Vista has TCP Auto tuning and it just stops the internet / network traffic.

I found some clients were complaining after upgrade or installing iMIS /Microsoft Dynamics GP in Vista. Actually this is an issue with the new feature. Here is how you can work around. This is suggested by Microsoft.

Disable TCP Autotuning

Vista's issues with slow browsing and network operations can be, in part, due to problematic network devices such as NICs and routers, but also because the new TCP Receive Window Auto-Tuning Level.

Click Start and type CMD.

1. Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to open the command Prompt with Administrative rights.
2. At the prompt in the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type the following command,
3. and then press ENTER: netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled

Now reboot your machine and see if it helps. In most cases, you will notice an improvement in file copy performance.
