Vista SP1 用 BT 有救！不再受龜速困擾！

Download Vista tcpip.sys and UAC Auto Patcher to Increase TCP Connection Limit
Windows Vista TCP/IP (tcpip.sys) and UAC Auto Patcher is a simple batch command script that automatically replaces and overwrites original tcpip.sys in \Windows\System32\Drivers\ folder with a patched tcpip.sys version (included) that has been modified and cracked to unlock and remove the limit imposed on concurrent half open TCP/IP connection attempts that Vista can launch at any one time. Patching the tcpip.sys to remove the restriction potentially yields benefits or solves problems as below.


Event ID 4226 in Event Viewer that describes TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts (more info).
Slow browsing speed such as web page unable to load or refresh when using P2P applications such as BitTorrent (BT) clients and eD2K eMule client.
Improve torrent speed and fix slow or even not moving downloading and uploading speed when using P2P programs. (see how to optimize torrent speed in Vista)
Prerequisite to Use Vista tcpip.sys and UAC Auto Patcher

Microsoft has released plenty of versions of tcpip.sys, thus each different versions of Windows Vista TCP/IP and UAC Auto Patcher will work only on certain version of Windows Vista, depending on the variant of tcpip.sys installed. To check the version of tcpip.sys, navigate to \Windows\System32\drivers folder, right click on tcpip.sys and select “Properties”, and the version info will be listed in “Details” pane.



Features of Vista tcpip.sys and UAC Auto Patcher

Automatically copy and replace tcpip.sys with patched version that unlock TCP/IP connection limit.
Set the maximum concurrent half-open TCP connection attempts to 50,000.
Disable User Account Control (UAC).
Disable Vista TCP Auto Tuning feature to minimize possible networking problems.

Usage Guide / Installation

Unpack and extract the content of the archive, and then run InstallPatch32.bat (for x86 system) or InstallPatch64.bat (for x64 system). Administrator rights elevation required.

IMPORTANT for 64-bit (x64) Windows Vista (RTM and SP1) and 32-bit (x86) Windows Vista SP1:

Windows Vista now require all kernel-mode driver or software to be signed with digital signature in 64-bit Vista, and all boot-start drivers must be embedded-sign with signature on both x86 and x64 versions of Windows Vista. Unfortunately, tcpip.sys is both kernel mode driver, and also boot start driver, and modify tcpip.sys will break the existing signature, making the patched tcpip.sys unsigned.

So when using patched tcpip.sys, users must press F8 at every Windows boot load. When come to Vista Advanced Boot Options menu, select “Disable Driver Signature Enforcement” to bypass driver signing check and continue loading Windows Vista, else there may be boot-failure.

Uninstallation

Run UndoPatch.bat to restore original tcpip.sys (provided you don’t delete the backup tcpip.sys.original), uninstall and remove concurrent half-open TCP/IP connection limit setting in the registry, revert TCP/IP autotuning level to normal, and re-enable UAC.

FAQ and Troubleshooting

How to change the connection limit to other value?
Users can change the limit to any value by navigating to the following registry key using Registry Editor:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\]

Locate “TcpNumConnections” registry value and change its value data to number you want.

I don’t want to disable UAC, how to re-enable UAC?
Run “Enable_UAC_Prompt.reg”, if you no longer want to patch tcpip.sys, run “UndoPatch.bat”. It’s also possible to use tool such as TweakUAC.

After installing patched tcpip.sys, the following problem exists on system boots up whenever restarts:

Windows Failed to Start. a recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation CD & restart.
2. Choose Language.
3. Click “Repair…”
