toy4x4 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Any way to remove this entirely?Never use it, never will. I always "uninstall" it at the TCPIP Config part of the setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdalling Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Add this to your winnt.sif[NetOptionalComponents] Beacon=0i have more in my network section, but I believe that was the only thing you need to disable it.R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenedy Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 What for? If you dont't have programs that can use QoS, it is not working (=consuming any resources) anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 And don't forget this one:[Components]NetOc = Onthis will make winnt.sif process the NetOptionalComponents section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toy4x4 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 What for? If you dont't have programs that can use QoS, it is not working (=consuming any resources) anyway.Because that's what I prefer. If it's not used/needed, then it needs to not be there at all.

buletov Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 if it's not broken, don't fix it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noise Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Always uninstall QoS Packet Scheduler!This is another stupid idea developed by Microsoft for a problem nobody has. What it does is limit your bandwidth of your internet connection.Say you're downloading a 100MB file from another computer on your LAN. With QoS installed it will take 20% longer to download that file. I suggest you read up on this little "feature":http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...b;EN-US;q316666It is broken, fix it.

rdalling Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I choose to remove it from my 6000+ desktops from the sheer standpoint I dont want Microsoft to install somethign I didnt add to my default desktop. It was one of the first things I took out of the default Windows XP build.R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noise Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Testify!Me too, and all other Systems Administrators I know remove this crap. It's the first to go. It's entirely un-needed on any modern network that uses switches.And they install it by default... amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepnmojo Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 According to Microsoft, a lot of these claims are unfounded. Most programs aren't designed for QOS.http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...b;EN-US;q316666I don't usually leave it on, but I am looking into it to see if it is a hinderence or not. I wouldn't mind being able to limit some connections, while not others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
