Courtney,
Thanks a MILLION for putting up this fix.
I have been going around in circles after trying to simply upgrade my sound card. I could not get any of 3 sound cards to work properly on my Vista tower.
After reading endless internet posts, I finally
found your article. Everything was fine if I disabled the wirless card, and also everything was fine on XP.
I used your fix, and Voila, everything is working perfectly. I had also noticed the very poor lan speed after upgrading to Vista, and had NO idea they were related.
How cool is that to solve 2 issues with one fix.
You are a GENIOUS in my book.
Oh BTW, both my machines are Vista Home Premium at SP2, one with 32 bit and one with 64. Both machines had exactly the same problem…
you have NO idea of how long I spent on this problem!
Thanks!!!!!!

Perfect. I’ve been banging my head against the wall on this for a long time (iTunes is open on my PC). Instead of 100mbps I’m pushing closer to 500mbps on machine-to-machine copies. Thanks!!

I came here to resolve Windows Home Server/Client Multimedia Streaming issues. I assume the above workarounds are to be applied to the client side. However, upon snooping around WHS registry settings, I saw no MMCSS in the value data field for DependOnService. I’m wondering if all machines on the same Local Network should have the same data settings under the DependOnService to alleviate the stuttering freezing regardless whether the stream is pushed or pulled? Fair question?
