I am trying to determine if the on board NIC NC7781 has the functionality to off load the TCP stack from the main processors? There is a registry hack for W2K Advanced Server that states by adding this key (See below) you can gain newtork performance if the network card supports TCP off loading.
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\DisableTaskOffload = 0 or 1
0 = Enables offloading
1 = Disables offloading
Does anyone know if the NC7781 onboard adapter supports TCP offloading??
Thanks
Tom
