just uninstalled Avast, problem solved.

Hi all, Today my laptop stopped opening pages on any browser (chrome, firefox, IE). Chrome says the page request is being rejected so I googled this up but wasn't able to fix it with the suggestions I found. Windows can't connect to anything in my network( other PCs etc.) and has no internet...

so i wired the ps3 and tried. Success ! Was able to stream roughly 2.6MBps. Seems like my old router is at fault. Thanks everyone

How do i change the channel wireless is running on ? There are none other devices connected. Just the lappy and the ps3

maybe its my mediocre router that is to blame. it is an old dlink wireless router. I'll try hooking up one device wired and see what happens

yes it could be the drivers but i've updated them recently so if they are at fault, im screwed till they make new ones. The streaming is done within my home network from my laptop to a ps3, not via the isp. Laptop is a 2.5ghz c2d which should do fine streaming i think

Program is called "ps3 media server" and I've set the video bandwidth at unlimited.

less than 10%. I understand the difference between bits and bytes, and I monitored the bandwidth using a program and it read around 1.1MBps.

so 54mbps is not 54mbps ??

Hi, I'm trying to stream media to my tv. Most videos work fine with no stutter. However there are certain videos that stutter, mainly HD ones. My initial conclusion was that my wifi bandwith wasnt enough(54mb). But when I checked network utilization on the task manager it shows 20% or less...

Thanks everyone :) The reason I'm buying offline is that I'm getting it through someone who is coming down from london. I live in Sri Lanka where pc parts are very expensive

Hi, I'm looking forward to getting myself a 5750. I'll be buying it from a store and not online. Anyone know of any pc store around london ? Thanks in advance

So I baked it. Had no luck the first time as the card was still artifacting. Decided to bake it again. Baked for another 8 minutes and tested it on the rig. The card was dead. The fans don't spin up, there's no POST. Anyway thanks everyone for helping out. Guess I'll have to throw away some...
