pages not displaying

Joe Doyle

After connecting to the internet, after about 5 pages I
get an error "ACTIVE SERVICE PAGES CANNOT BE DISPLAYED,
SERVER COULD BE DOWN OR DNS ERROR........." and from there
I cannot view any more pages.It seems to hang up. My
connection window shows I'm still connected. If I reboot
my system same thing happens. I am not sure if it is a
connection issue, an internal modem issues, or a dialin
issue. HELP!!!!!!

Is this on your own site and server, or are you talking about other sites?

Yes this is on my windows 2000 server at home. I connect
to the internet through PPP dialin service. I can view
several pages before it hangs then I get the message. then
in order to get back online I have to reboot,. Not good!

I'm do not have an active server as of yet but I do
searches on www and those pages are not displaying. this
problem started about a week ago. I update to SP4 through
a CD because the darn thing would quit on me saying it
could connect to site

This question is probably better suited to m.p.w2k.windows_update or
m.p.w2k.networking. However, since you are here, others have reported
the same slow down/timing out issues you are encountering after
installing W2K SP4. Here are two (2) possible resolutions

1. Uninstall and then reinstall the TCP/IP protocol.

OR

2. Set the following registry key to 0 (zero).

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Tc
pip1323Oopts


IMPORTANT NOTE!!!: BACKUP YOUR REGISTRY BEFORE DOING THIS!!!
Usually, I don't like to shout but I will not be held liable when the
stuff hits the fan. ;-p

P.S. What is Tcpip1323Oopts you ask? Well it is based on RFC 1323 of
course. Wise ass comments aside, RFC 1323 refers to "TCP Extensions for
High Performance". Specifically Tcpip1323Oopts deals with windows
scaling and round trip timing. Of the two(2) it is windows scaling is
the one that's causing problems. SP4 heralds a change in Microsoft's TCP
header. Probably more information than you wanted, but there it is. Here
are some links:
