AC Power needed for full performance? (GT680)

I recently got my new MSI GT680 I'm really satisfied, it has more than surpassed my expectations.
That's all fine and dandy until last night when I said I'd give Street Fighter IV a go, I put all the graphics settings on the highest spec and then ran the benchmark, it was hitting an average of 15FPS! I closed the game and just sat down with a really dissapointed look on my face then I thought, meh, I'll see what happens with the AC power plugged in and BAM, it was hitting 65FPS+
Any way, my point is, do I HAVE to have the AC power plugged in to have decent performance or is there a setting configuration that I'm missing? If I do have to have it plugged all the time then I'll be pretty annoyed as it kind of defeats the purpose of a laptop.
Thanks in advance for any replies

Yeah I have a GT780 and I'm interested in running from DC power as I have a 36AH lead acid battery. I thought about getting another notebook battery but decided against it when it lagged in performance on notebook battery power.
FYI, I ran it on a 300W inverter and it ran for an hour and a half.
I think a DC adaptor would be more efficient but you can't get DC power on 19.5V and 7.7A, Jaycar have an adaptor that runs on 19V and 8AH but I was warned not to use it.

For Full performance You need a Higher voltage AC Adapter Message

Hello,
I have a HP G70-460US Laptop since October 10,2009. About three days ago, the laptop started showing me a system message about the AC Adapter. The message says: For Full performance you need a higher voltage AC adapter. I verified the AC Adapter and the temperature was normal. The battery was charging OK. I had the laptop connected to a power strip, so I connect the laptop directly to the wall outlet. The next day, my wife was trying to use the laptop, and the battery had no charge. I unplugged and plugged again the AC Adpter and started charging again, but, the system keeps posting the same error message as before. My laptop is usually connected to a electrical outlet.
What can be the problem?

We are also getting this same message with a new G60-506US laptop just placed in service with the factory HP A/C adapter.
Looks like someone from HP needs to get into this!

What kind of server power needed for 500 simultanious podcast downloads?

OK I run a VBulletin forum
We have average 500+ people on line at the same time, some times as many as 750..
I want to do some podcasting at the time of a trade show, relating to the forums topic.
What I DONT want is for the forum and server to grind to a halt because we suddenly get a lot of 'pull' / bandwith use because of podcast download / streaming.
Is there anywhere i can go to get info on the tech / server requirements for podcasts and the load they put on servers?
Thanks v much in advance!

I would suggest just hosting your MP3 files on libsyn
http://www.libsyn.com
They are setup to handle a lot of podcast bandwidth.
Remember there is no need to host your MP3 files where you have your main site - Just the XML (Rss Feed) should be on your main site.

Clarifications needed for full text search

Hi,
I need some clarification regarding full text search.
1) Is japanese part of the standard Oracle full text search?
2) if it is not, how to install the japanese lexer?
3) how oracle is sorting international characters. If a column contains both english, japanese and french, how will be the output?
Thanks

XMLAGG structure, performance help needed for odd nesting in schema

Hello,
I have to produce XML to look like:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<enterprise>
    <membership>
      <sourcedid>
        <id>PHYS_101_001_FA2007</id>
      </sourcedid>
    
    <member>
      <sourcedid>
        <id>D2LU0001</id>
      </sourcedid>
      <role roletype="Sample Role">
        <status>1</status>
      </role>
    </member>
    <member>
      <sourcedid>
        <id>D2LU0002</id>
      </sourcedid>
      <role roletype="Sample Role">
        <status>1</status>
      </role>
    </member>
</membership>
</enterprise>This would be straightforward if the schema allowed for a "<members>" tag under which to nest the <member> tags. But, it does not allow for that tag or any other than those listed above.
I have a query which does produce that output (except for the roletype attribute), but its performance is horrible; it takes about 40 minutes to return data:
SELECT
     XMLROOT(
         XMLELEMENT("enterprise",
           XMLAGG(
             XMLELEMENT("membership",
               XMLFOREST( XMLELEMENT("id",cx.mapped_course_id) as "sourcedid"
               (SELECT XMLAGG(
                 XMLELEMENT("member",
                   XMLFOREST(XMLELEMENT("id",spriden_id) AS "sourcedid",
                             XMLELEMENT("status",'1') AS "role"
                  FROM enrollments_fall_sfrstca efs
                     , spriden sp
                     , gzv_tuid t
                 WHERE sp.spriden_change_ind IS NULL
                   AND sp.spriden_pidm       = t.pidm
                   AND t.tuid                = efs.user_name
                   AND efs.mapped_course_id = cx.mapped_course_id
                   AND efs.term              = cx.semester
            , VERSION '1.0', STANDALONE NO VALUE)
FROM courses_xt cx
WHERE cx.semester = :term_code
;Similar queries are producing courses and users XML fine with no performance issues, but these are driven off either the courses view or the enrollments view, but not both.
Is there some other way I can produce the nesting I need for the vendor's schema?
The source views are basically as follows (showing relevant columns only):
courses_xt:
MAPPED_COURSE_ID       SEMEST
AVFT209-13307-201210   201210
AVFT210-13308-201210   201210enrollments_fall_sfrstca:
MAPPED_COURSE_ID       USER_NAME
AVFT209-13307-201210    FULLERC8
AVFT209-13307-201210    SHUPEK
AVFT209-13307-201210    NOMAN
AVFT210-13308-201210    SHUPEK
AVFT210-13308-201210    PELLONMWhen I have the query without the XML (with the subquery as a column of the outer query), this returns the correct data quickly (a couple of minutes).
I have tried various permutations of XMLFOREST, XMLELEMENT, XMLAGG but either I get syntax errors, or the data is wrong (e.g. repeated '<membership>' for each '<member>', or I have to create an invalid tag '<members>' to be filtered later).
Please advise!
Thanks,
Anita Lees

Hi Anita,
Have you tried with a GROUP BY and no subquery?
Here's an example using SCOTT schema.
I've used the same tag names and structure so that you can see the analogy :
SELECT XMLElement("enterprise",
         XMLAgg(
           XMLElement("membership",
             XMLElement("sourceid", xmlelement("id", d.deptno))
           , XMLAgg(
               XMLElement("member",
                 XMLElement("sourceid",
                   XMLElement("id", e.empno)
               , XMLElement("role",
                   XMLAttributes(e.job as "roletype")
                 , XMLElement("status", '1')
FROM scott.dept d
     LEFT OUTER JOIN scott.emp e ON e.deptno = d.deptno
WHERE d.deptno IN (10,20)
GROUP BY d.deptno
;which gives :
<enterprise>

Do I need a power converter for my ipad in Ireland?

Do I need a power converter for my ipad2 and my macbook air (11 inch 2010) in Ireland?
Sorry, I'm new to this site and just found the answer to my question in another post.

I was on my way out earlier and didn't have time to see if easily bought in USA, but I also would have suggested a power strip for the UK. Also, not aware of Picachu's needs - if traveling with others, etc., ...
For many years, once our sons got ipods, I have always brought a power strip (w/usb) on vacations and even on long weekends to weddings for all the items I listed above plus rechargeable tooth brushes, beard trimmers, and two ipads. It has made recharging so much easier. (I have friends in similar situations who hadn't thought to bring a power strip for charging things for their family all at once overnight.)
So thanks for bringing it up. Meanwhile, Picachu got an answer early and without having checked 'get e-mail notif.' he/she might not have a clue. Still happy you brought it up.
Thanks.

"You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for seve..."

Hello,
I have recently been getting this same message "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds or press the Restart button." whenever I start up my computer. It happens about 95% of the time. I have been reading on different forums that I should reset the PRam and the NVRam and I have been doing so and it does help as it does EVENTUALLY start up (sometimes takes me 5-10 min. to get it to start up).
I have also read that it may be the RAM that is loose, so I did check that and made sure that the ram is properly placed (which it is).
I don't know what else I can do. Should I reformat and reinstall Mac OS X?
Here is the exact error form the dump:
IOAPIC: Version 0x20 Vectors 64:87
AppleACPIPlatformExpert::start failed
panic(cpu 0 caller 0x55c095): "Unable to find driver for this platform: \"Macbook 2,1\".\n"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1504.9.26/iokit/Kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp:1389
Debugger called: <panic>

Well just got around to installing the new HDD and RAM yesterday, and I am sad to say... that the problem persists. :/
I reseated the memory and made sure they were in there properly, and I also installed the HDD and ran DiskUtility before I erased/reformatted and installed a fresh version of MacOSX Leopard, then updated to Snow Leopard.
As long as I am using my computer everything works fine, the problem occurs when the machine is shut off or put to sleep for a long period of time. Because when I shut it off and turn it right back on a few minutes later it works, or if I shut the lid and open it 10-20 min. later everything works fine, it's only when the machine is off or asleep for long periods of time.
So, I do not know what else can be wrong.
Should I try to take out the old RAM and just leave the new module in and see if that works out? See if that specific module is faulty?

Error Message -may need to download Photoshop camera raw plug in version 7.3 for full compatibility

I have been working in Lightroom 4.3 for MAC. From there I open 2 files to edit in Photoshop as layers so I can add a layer mask to the bottom layer and use the paint brush tool to make certain areas of the image darker or lighter. I have been doing this with no problem and now it doesn't seem to work. I can see the brushes' strokes on the layer mask but can not see the results on the image.
I keep getting a message from Lightroom saying I may need to download Photoshop camera raw plug in version 7.3 for full compatibility whener I try to edit on Photohsop thru Lightroom, but I have already added this plug in and it asks for it. It happens with raw, jpegs and tiffs from my 1D Mark II or my 5D Mark III and with other people's camera. It used to work fine. Now it dosen't I feel like it is something so simple. Please help. This si crucial to my business.

The wording of the message about ACR 7.3 is a bit misleading: What it means is that ACR 7.3 is required for Photoshop. Lr 4.3 has got it.
Which version of Photoshop are you using?
I suspect it's not CS6 but a prior version. If it is a version prior to CS6 you cannot install ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) 7.3.
You may have downloaded it but you cannot install it. It doesn't install.
On the other hand Lr 4.3 is based on ACR 7.3. So you have an incompatibility of ACR versions: 7.3 in Lr 4.3 and an earlier-version-ACR in Photoshop.
With this situation Lr an dPhotoshop are not fully compatible, i.e. you cannot open images as layers. You can only open one image at a time, either by letting Lr 4.3 render the PSD (or TIFF) and sending it to Photoshop (by selecting <Render using Lightroom>), or you let Photoshop open the Raw file with its earlier version ACR (by selecting <Open Anyway>).
In this situation you have two choices: Either upgrade to CS6, or open images in Photoshop one at a time and vonvert to layers in Photoshop.

Need power schematics for a 20" cinema display a1038 (four pronged cord)

need power schematics for a 20" cinema display a1038
missing the power adapter for the cinema display,need to know what the leads are for the power cord.
There is a Edison power cord that plugs into a little square box, then a 4 pronged cord plugs into that box.
I have a 24 volt power supply with the same amps, and want to hook it up to the 4 pronged plug since I don't have the little power supply box. I don't know what each lead is.
The easy answer is to buy the power supply. I bought the cinema display cheap and want to see if its worth buying the little box power supply that costs around 70$ on e-bay. If it works with the 24 volt power supply Ill go ahead and buy the little box.

Hi
If the monitor is a clear acrylic model with three feet (which it seems to be), and your computer is an original AGP Graphics/Sawtooth model, you'll need a DVI to ADC adapter.
You can identify your exact computer model from the following link:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58418
The ADC connector, which the older 20" Cinema Display uses, wasn't introduced until the later Gigabit Ethernet models. Unfortunately a newer graphics card with an ADC port won't work either, as the Sawtooth lacks an extra connector on the logic board required to power the monitor through the ADC cable.
DVI to ADC adapters are fairly expensive as they include an integral power supply to drive the monitor. It may also be worth checking your graphics card supports the resolution of the 20" display (1680 by 1050). In the worst case you may need a new graphics card (with a DVI port) and the adapter.

What cable do I need for a full migration from a 2011 MacBook Pro to a new current one-wireless migration way too slow.?

What cable do I need for a full migration from a 2011 MacBook Pro to a new current one-wireless migration way too slow.?

All you need is an Ethernet cable.
Just plug it into both machines. Don't bother with a crossover cable, just a plain old Ethernet cable will do. The Ethernet ports on the Macs are smart and will adjust appropriately.

John, please refrain from posting your personal email in these threads. It is not necesary and all communication to you can be done directly in these forums. Posting your email address can open up you to tons of unwanted spam, among other things. Really all you can do is search the internet for them. My suggestion would be to google "case for late 2007 macbook pro".
One will probably be very hard to find for a 6 year old model as it is on the borderline of being considered "vintage". Ebay may be a good place to try too.

Gerard, welcome to the discussions!
"1) We don't really need the wireless function so can we use it without wireless?"
Yes, you could turn the wireless mode off and it will work fine as an ethernet router. I'm not sure if the D-Link you have been using also provides a modem function. The AirPort Extreme does not have a modem onboard, so you would need a cable or DSL modem to work with the device.
"2) Will the AirPort Extreme work with our 10 Base T connections?
Yes, this will happen automatically.
"3) We use iChat a lot. Is there any special configuration required for using iChat?"
I have iChat setup on two Macs and no special configuration with the Extreme is needed.
