Download speed drops to 15000 + kbs to 7000-12000kbs after the installation of Vista Ultimate

I've recently upgraded to XP Home to Vista Ultimate. I have Time Warner Cable as my ISP. After upgrading my download speed went from 15000 + kbs to maximum 12000kbs. My download speed has not changed.

I have removed the excess programs and am initialization with minimal configuration. I use IE8. Using Firefox is not better. Everything seems to work fine. Average download is now 9000-10000kbs. Time Warner Cable has checked evertyhing, street speed is 24000 kbs.

Somewhere, something must be running somwhere and eat my bandwidth. I can't find. Also, using Norton 360 v4. Can anyone offer ideas about what happened when I installed Vista?

So it comes to a computer you built yourself or built a generic, not a machine OEM brand? If it is an OEM brand machine you get the drivers from the website of the OEM, not directly from Intel. If it is a generic office, try to throw in a PCI network card and see if that helps. One you use is perhaps not all that compatible with Vista. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
