foxygrandma Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 TcpWindowSize. Modify the registry setting for TcpWindowSize by double clicking on the key. Change the Base Setting to Decimal. Enter the value 64240 and click OK, then exit RegEdit. When I enered the value above it said it had to be truncated and I do not understand that. What does that mean, please?

foxygrandma Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Sorry, Bear, for taking so long to get back. Care-taking is a hard job. Anyway, After I changed the base setting to decimal, Entered the value 64240, clicked okay, exited RegEdit, and rebooted, I went back to check it and it reads in the large white pane: Reg- DWORD 0X000fafo (64240) I cliciked on it and it has changed back to hexadecimal with 64 in Value Data. Is this the way it should be? Link to post Share on other sites
Bear Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Once you change a value it should stay changed Link to post Share on other sites

foxygrandma Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Thank you, Bear. I am not familiar with "sizes" so will have to explore when I have more time. Have to scoot now.
