fendertele19 you are an angel sent to help other frustrated pc users - big respect

I have had an issue whee I dual boot both win7 one from ssd the other from hd (exactly the same OS except different drives) (wired connection)

My internet slowed from 50mb down to 2-3mb on my ssd version and I tried and tried to figure out why but my laptop (another ssd) was good (both wired and wifi)

I couldn't figure out what was wrong so just for a change I rebooted back to my hd win7 (yes the same pc, the same connection) yes it was slower to boot up and needed updates (hadn't used it for a few months) but the speed was 50mb... all the way, updates, patches, restarting - pressing F8 to get it to boot back into hd win7 and still I had my 50mb

Went back into ssd Win7 and down to 2-3mb - re-installed win7 checking speeds etc just like you and everything good then after a day or so it slowed again...just like you

I checked everything and couldn't fix so another re-install of win7 (even did recovery) on all occasions for a day or so it will be fine

I did search before but nothing came up, people where blaming the ethernet cable, the nic etc

but now because of you I'm good agin

Thank you

solved? yes solved by uninstalling AMD Quick Stream

Then receiving an email saying an update is already online but when questioning about the update - no reply.

So AMD Quick Stream remained uninstalled until today - an update message - so thinking like any normal competent pc user I click OK install

And here's the proof
AMD Quick Stream AppEx Networks 20/09/2014 10.8 MB 3.10.0.0
AMD Catalyst Install Manager Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.20/09/2014 26.5 MB 8.0.916.0

and here's the result

and after uninstalling AMD Quick Stream

so not solved
