Windows 10: Does the "MB actually means MiB" thing apply to RAM-related stuff as well in Windows 10? In...

Just trying to figure out which numbers would be more optimal to use while setting the size of a page file.

error loading the TCP mib library in windows 10

Hello,

We suggest that you follow the suggestion of Bikesh T from this
thread to isolate your concern with TCP MIB Library error. The troubleshooting
steps provided on the thread is also applicable to Windows 10.

We'll look forward for the result.

The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

Windows 10 - How things have progressed

Few people hate changes that are for the better, and it is irrational to like a change that is for the worse. Added steps to complete the same task, and reduced functionality (in exchange for ... nothing) are both changes for the worse.

RAM was about $30/MB in 1995, and 4 MB was about the average amount that a then-new PC had (which usually had a 486 CPU), and that was about a $1,500 or $1,600 deal for a complete setup (including monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers). Here's a 75 MHz Pentium machine with 8 MB of RAM from 1995 for $2,000. For $2,800 you could make it a 133 MHz Pentium. Running Windows 95 comfortably in 1995 wasn't cheap. The funny thing is, those CPUs and RAM amounts became obsolete very quickly back then. That $2,800 machine from 1995 would be an absolute dog trying to run Windows XP from just 6 years later. I don't even think XP will attempt to install with only 8 MB of RAM, and even if it did, it would run like cold molasses; to the point of being effectively unusable:

So just 6 years later, that $2,800 machine only has half the CPU clock rate, 1/8 the RAM, and 1/3 the hard drive space of a machine that could just barely run XP (XP on a 233 MHz CPU and 64 MB of RAM is quite the dog itself).

Today, even a relatively low-end desktop PC from 6 years ago will run Windows 10 alright, and a high-end machine from 2009 (e.g., Core i7, 8 GB of RAM or more) is in the "way overkill" category for running Windows 10.
