View 3 Replies View RelatedSetting Power Plan To High Performance Actually Improve Gaming In Battery Mode?
Jul 27, 2011Anyways, in laptops (gaming or not), does setting the power plan to High Performance actually improve gaming (frame rates, speed and anything else) in battery mode? I'm using a laptop (not dedicated gaming, but suffices) and my games (the recent ones) slow down whenever I'm in battery mode. A couple of friends told me I should set it High Performance, which I doubted since they don't seem to be the type to change the power plan settings and more so with the advanced plan settings.

Aug 10, 2011I'm looking for performance for graphics editing - high res and large files, 200MB files are not unusual - and do a lot of design and publishing work, sometimes on large and complex documents. Occasionally I'm working with video from phones but might get more into HD video in the future.Current machine does what I need quite happily - Windows 7 x64, 6GB (DDR3 10600) RAM, ASUS Sabretooth X58. I've got an opportunity to add some more RAM - another 12GB - for not much money. Might do it just to see what happens - but am I going to notice any difference at all? Are there any clever things that I (or the OS) can do with a surplus of RAM? Or will it just use more power?

Jan 1, 2013I have a 1080p LG LCD Monitor.
It has 2 inputs, DVI and VGA. I have two different types of cables, HDMI-DVI and VGA-VGA. I tried connecting my laptop to the monitor.
My laptop has two outputs, VGA and HDMI. When I use the HDMI output, the image on my monitor is sharp and clear. When I use the VGA output and the VGA-VGA cable, the image on my monitor is blurry.
EDIT: My VGA connector also has one peculiarity. From the point of view of the sockets, Pin No. 9 is missing, for both ends. (although it may unused)

View 4 Replies View RelatedImprove Network Speed
Dec 24, 2009I'm not too terrible familiar with all the ins and outs of networking, but I have some "basic" questions as I am looking into improving my network speed.
I'll begin with what I have on the network.
2 PCs, PS3, Xbox 360 (all wired) and a Wii (wireless).
I have a WRT54GS router currently. I'm considering getting the D-Link DGL-4500 as an upgrade. My question is, would this be a significant upgrade? One of my PCs has a gigabit Ethernet card and one does not. Will this router supply the fastest speed to each device or would it provide the speed that the weakest device was capable of to all devices on the network?
Secondly, my Internet provider offers 3 packages.
7 Mbps X 512 Kbps
9 Mbps X 768 Kbps
11 Mbps X 1 Mbps
I currently have the 1st package (7 X 512), so how dramatic would the change from the 1st to 3rd package be?
I'm primarily looking to A) Get constant good speeds when gaming B) Get significant increased speeds when streaming video etc.
Again, I'm quite new to the networking side of things, so I don't know if these questions even make complete sense, but I thought I'd ask before I try the spend and trial/error approach, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Upgrade From Xp To 7 To Improve Ram Usage
Sep 23, 2009I am using a school laptop running winxp that has 2 GB ram. But it still uses 1 GB of the page file in addition to the physical ram. I heard that windows 7 has "better" performance that xp.
I was wondering if upgrading to vista and then 7 would help reduce ram usage. I suspect it is the educational crapware loaded on the laptop that is hogging the ram with background processes and the like, but I don't see how it can take up an entire 2 GB ram + 1 GB page file.
Improve Audio On HP Notebook

Can someone help me find a good program for this. A program with equalizers and the such, options for setting diff sound types? Hope you understand what I mean. Also, did I give enough tech info?
PS: Should have asked. What are some really good/best over the ear head phones for a PC?

Dec 8, 2010Sometimes when I'm updating files that happen to reside in my user folder, the same folder that's indexed on my Windows 7 machine, I'll notice that the indexing engine doesn't always pick up the last time it was actually modified. It's kind of spotty actually, sometimes it'll pick it up and sometimes it won't. Why is that and is there anything I can do to improve the authenticity of my searches, kind of like an Indexing Best Practices?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIncreasing RAM Usage And Improve Re-draw Time
Oct 15, 2012I have an Intel I5 Ivy Bridge CPU, Win 7 64-bit Home Premium OS, 16Gb RAM and Nvidia GTX 550 TI graphics board with 1 Gb DDR5 memory. I run two real-time stock charting/trading programs on two monitors.
My objectives are to improve screen re-draw time and to decrease Windows' hard disk access. While there are other alternatives to consider, I'd like to invite the community to offer thoughts on two questions:
1. How to increase Window's RAM usage for paging/caching : The System Monitoring tools are showing that RAM usage is only about 30% of the 16Gb installed while Windows' hard drive caching is continuously busy. If there is a tweak to increase RAM usage, I would expand RAM memory to 32Gb.
2. Otherwise, I might install a 120 Gb Solid State Drive. Then, the question is whether using the SSD for the OS or as the cache drive as per Intel Rapid Storage

Aug 7, 2009In the screen shot, C, E, and F are legit volumes/drives. I have no idea what this Local Disk 'Q' is. I try to open it, says not accessible (and it shouldnt be because it doesnt exist)
Also, Removable Storage, I have 1 DVD drive, the rest G - L are bogus. One of those is listed as a BD-ROM which I dont have either.
Why are these listed when they dont exist?
XP To Win7: Extra Drive
Aug 30, 2009I am planning on upgrading from XP to Windows 7 Professional fairly soon. I know that it performs a clean install and that I need to back up my C drive.
My question is in regards to my secondary hardrive. Will the clean install also wipe the second hardrive or will it leave it untouched? Basically, can I back up my C drive onto the secondary drive without fear of losing it all? I would assume it would leave the second drive alone but I couldn't find any info and thus, why I am here asking.
Extra USB Port Extenders
Jan 6, 2010Amazing how fast one uses up the USB Ports supplied in the desktop PC.
Am trying to only use the ones in the back, as it gets messy if I also use the two on the front.
Have an external powered 4-Port hub that I purchased, and am using that also.
Seems like I need another one or two spigots.
Question: If I get another powered external 4-Port extender, can this be plugged into a port on the existing extra Port extender I already have, or must it only be plugged into one of the USB ports in the back of the PC ?
Does it matter at all, and the PC will recognize it either way ?
