Anyone know if this will work as is with SP2 2180?

Look in your event viewer for Event ID 4226, that'll tell you if it's limiting your connections. As far as a complete removal of this limit, no not yet. There is a patch avaliable that moves the limit from 10 to 50 connections (listed in a previous link).

It's two reasons for me: 1) By what right does Microsoft have to set down limits on my internet use? I could see if they set some limited defaults for all the Joe Sixpacks out there that just do a base install of the OS, or keep the installed OS on their new PC they just bought. But why shouldn't we have the ability to unlock that? /end rant 2) If you use P2P programs, then you will be highly limited on your up/download speeds. Bittorrent uses 100 connections by default (I believe).

I've tried it on a CD install, and it works great so far.

At a CMD windows, get to the directory the file is in, and type: expand termsrv.dl_ termsrv.dll That'll do it

Sweet, it looks like it patched it, now I have to try it out. Thanks for the link. After looking at this page, Here. It seems this is only patching the connections to 50 total (up from the new limit of 10), but still not unlimited, like SP1 or before.

Anyone know of anything else that might work? This is killing bittorrent downloads. UPDATE: I found this webpage that says they have a fix for it. Fix? UPDATE 2: I just tried it, but it hasn't been set to work with build 2180 yet.

This is being discussed here: Thread

When you say they have the same ID, how far is it the same? you have Vendor ID, Device ID, and SubSystem ID. All 3 are the same, or just 2?

Sweet, now we need someone who can find the bits we need to replace in the RTM version of the file. Anyone know of anyone that would be intrested?

I'm working with clean installs in VMWare. If you already have SFC disabled, then try booting to safe mode and replace the file (after making a backup) in the dllcache and system32 dirs. Not sure this will work, but I think it should. Be aware, no one has confirmed this will work.

Thank you very much. This version is the only one I could find that was confirmed to have Concurrent Sessions enabled, does anyone know of a newer version that does?

I already have SP2 RTM. I'm looking for the last version that had concurrent sessions enabled, so it can be ported to RTM.

I need a copy of the termsrv.dll from build 2055. Thanks

DOH Thanks. I have my link bookmarked to the forums, so I never see the homepage.

If this has already been posted, sorry, I did do a search first. Anyone seen this EventID? EventID 4226 TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts Do you see this when using Bittorrent or eMule? The only thing I could find on it was over at Warp2Search.net, Here. Just wondering if there is a work around out yet.

Here is a link for the other hotfix with the same number: DirectX90-KB839643-x86-ENU.EXE Switches are: /quiet /norestart

I have a legit VLK, and mine doesn't.

I just tried build 2126, and it has the "activation issue". It integrates without any errors. And it goes through the first part of the install correctly. It's when you try and get into the Windows GUI for the time, it gives this error: Windows Product Activation A problem is preventing Windows from accurately checking the license for this computer. Error Code: 0x80004005 bummer

I know where you can download it, just not sure it's allowed to post the link here?

I found that there are 4 reg keys that need to be altered. My reg file looks like this: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup] "Installation Sources"=hex(7):43,00,3a,00,5c,00,49,00,33,00,38,00,36,00,00,00,\ 00,00 "SourcePath"="C:" "ServicePackSourcePath"="C:" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion] "SourcePath"="C:\\I386"

It is a known problem of Sysprep. Sysprep will NOT install unsigned drivers. DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore This entry does nothing at all for sysprep, it ignores it totally. The only work around is to use the -pnp switch with sysprep, but it has lots of drawbacks. Try it out and see if you can deal with the side effects.

Do a search on www.pricewatch.com for "Win XP Preinstallation CD" You can pick them up for around $5

I've never even looked at xpcreate. I'm new to this site, just found it two weeks ago. I've been doing this kind of stuff for more than 2 years as part of my job. I found this site because I was googling for a specific tweak. As far as combining it to goshs method, You would put my 4 reg entries into what ever reg file you are loading in cmdlines.txt. Then you would remove the batch file code that copies down the I386 folder. Point the code that installs the recovery console from CD, to point to the hard drive instead (runs quicker, but you don't have too). Copy your I386 folder into the $1 folder, and add the "-o" switch to the command line for your CDImage.exe ISO creation batch file. That's it.

I don't believe that will work, as the I386 folder has to be at the same level as the $OEM$ folder. But you never know till you try.
