Killer Configuration “About” Tab Killer Xeno Configuration “Advanced Mode” Visible from any of the 2 modes, the About tab displays your current software suite version; card type, card ID, Diagnose button and the auto update option. Advanced mode adds the TCP control tab. If you wish to be notified when a new driver is published, put a check in the “Automatically check for updates” box. Your Card ID is used to identify your specific card for registration and tech support.
"TCP No Delay" creates the registry entry: Bandwidth Control: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters\TCPNoDelay - Setting the DWORD value to 1 disables the Nagle algorithm While the Killer Xeno’s drivers and configuration tools are designed to seamlessly speed up your game performance, the Bandwidth Control feature allows you to take a step beyond this and set aside the bandwidth used by individual programs.
With Bandwidth Control enabled, programs are automatically added to the Priority and Bandwidth Tabs as they connect to the internet. New Connections: You can choose if you want to be notified each time a program is added to the list. Or simply let it be added under default settings for you to tweak later. Hint: Novice users should begin by only using the priority page and try to get their Internet speed average as accurate as possible in settings.
EVGA Gaming: FIRMWARE OUT OF SYNC: If a firmware warning is ever shown, indicating that your firmware does not match your driver: First verify you have a Killer Xeno installed (you may have removed it or knocked it loose from the PCIe slot), and if it is installed and the lights are working, and clicking “yes” to the prompt has not solved the issue, navigate to C:\Program Files\Bigfoot Networks\Killer Driver and run the file KillerFlash.exe (You will need to reboot before the new firmware takes effect).
