You can just use the giganews server directly without giganews accelerator, UE handles giganews compression itself exactly in the same way, adding the "accelerator" consumes resources and may also slow down the download/upload speed (e.g. when CPU usage is high and the additional process ...

Update

I have moved the UE directory off of my RAID5 array. This array is running using the latest drivers via a HighPoint Tech 1640 RAID adapter. Since moving it off the array, I have had no system lock ups. Thinking back to past times, I would sometimes find my RAID1 arrays would "break" when r...

if you cannot kill the program from the windows task manager it is a sign of some trouble on the system level (some driver maybe or hardware malfunction like something with hard drives).

Out of curiosity, do you have a clean system? By this I mean do you have anti-virus running and regularly check with things like Ad-Aware and/or Spybot?

UE and system lockups

I'm using the latest UE. The programme locks my machine up randomly for unknown reasons. Sometimes it will work for a while. Sometimes it locks it up after a short time. It's the application that locks up and I cannot kill it. I have to power cycle the machine. Sometimes it is still possible to use ...

PC Crashed - lost all newsgroups

My PC froze so I had to reboot it. All the newsgroups I subscribed too have vanished. I'm also unable to make "Get newsgroup list" or "Rescan newsgroup list" do anything (i.e. no newsgroup lists are being collected from any server I am subscribing too despite all the server detai...

Thanks for all the replies. ;)

In the absence of any suggestions I guess the solution must be to go out and buy a P4 3.2Ghz, a new motherboard and 4Gb of RAM so NewsPro runs happily; so that's what I am going to do. :roll:

Downloading headers - speed drop

Hi I've been using NewsPro for a couple of years and have been very happy with it. Just got back into using it again and installed the latest version. I've set up a clean instance, with four news servers (newscene, easynews, giganews and newshosting). This instance has a single group within (a.b.dvd...
