OK. I'm running an older machine, and I'm fine on slow to moderate torrents, but if I'm on a well seeded torrent that uploads at more than 100kbs, I usually get a BSoD (memory dump) and the system reboots. I never get a BSoD at any other time, and I'm fine if the torrent is dl'ing at slower than ~100kbps.
I'm running a
win 2k pro
p3 550
384 Megs sdram
80 Gig system drive on it's own IDE channel (7200 RPM Ultra DMA2)
40 Gig drive on it's own IDE channel (using a PCI IDE controller card) (5400 RPM Ultra DMA 2)
BitTornado
I'm thinking that BitTornado is the problem. I've set the settings to only connect to 30 peers max, and lowered the write cache. I only download to the non-system drive. If I do choose the system drive, or another partiton on the 80Gb drive, it still gives me the BSoD. So I know that it's not the hard drive.
Is there any good clients that are a smaller footprint than Azerus but more stable than the current BitTornado?
What's a good, small footprint client that is better put together?
