New issue 43672 by eddjasfreeman: QoS RSVP service on Windows XP SP3
appears necessary to display google ig page, streaming video, service
intermittently stops and Chrome crashes
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=43672

Chrome Version : <4.1.249.1064 (45376)>
URLs (if applicable) :http://www.google.com/ig;
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26315908/; various;
Other browsers tested:
Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Safari 4: -
Firefox 3.x: Similar display problems but doesn't crash browser
IE 7: -
IE 8: As Firefox

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Intermittent. Some pages seem to bring it on, intermittently, but with no
apparent pattern so I can't swear to it.
2. Intermittent. Has applied to previous Chrome 4 and also 5 beta, which I
uninstalled because of frequent crashes.
3.

What is the expected result?

Properly working browser!


What happens instead?

Chrome works fine for significant periods. Otherwise, ig page loads slowly,
cannot reach some gadgets, skin not showing in ig. Streaming video
difficult or impossible. Download bandwidth drastically cut and variable
instead of peaking and remaining stable at about 86% of 1152kb limit
imposed by ISP. Getting QoS started and reconnecting/reinitializing
connection/if all else fails rebooting fixes problem.


Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

Sorry no screenshot. Everything I have read seems to indicate that QoS RSVP
is not necessary or even desirable, but in this machine's case, it won't do
internet connections properly without it. Windows Professional XP SP3
(French language OS), 76413-OEM-0011903-00102, Dell Optiplex GX520.
