Having installed the tcpip.sys from the hacked_files.zip doesn't solve my problem btw. So it must be other SP2 modifications which are the cause :-( I dont think rolling back to SP1 will be any real solution cause SP2 is needed because of all fixes included in it. I would much prefer to know what changed with respect to this error and just change that back to SP1 state. If anyone know anything please help cause it's driving me crazy.

Oh i should have added i have more than enough (free) memory (1 Gb) when this problem starts occuring.

nolookingca: i'm talkin about the UNCOMPRESSED files ofcourse..they do differ so i still dont understand. The reason i'm trying this hacked tcpip.sys in the first place are the 'No buffer space' available messages mirc gives me after some a few hours after I installed SP2. My FTPclient tells me Connection failed (10055:No buffer space available) then and all internet access is gone. I can't even initialize taskmanager after that. Shutting down most of the stuff i'm running 'solves' this but of course this is not acceptable. It used to happen with SP1 as well but only after a much longer time like 2/3 weeks. I really need a solution to this and the solution is NOT to quit down on network connections or applications I run. It must be some changed settings or system files which is causing this. Any comments are much appreciated.

1) Are you aware the sfc_os.dll in your hacked_files zipfile is not the same as the sfc_os.dll mentioned in that thread you mention? I thought you referred to that thread becasue the file there should be supposedly the same as the one in hacked_files.zip? (http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=23587&view=findpost&p=161269]http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...ndpost&p=161269) 2) uxtheme.dll in your hacked_files.zip is not the same file as the one put in "Direct Download: See next post" I'm confused all these files differ..are you sure the files in hacked_files.zip are the right ones? How can they all differ? Thanks for any reply.

Could you please provide a valid link to your (new) modified slipstreamed files again? The former link doesn't work anymore. Thanks a lot.
