Game performance becomes slow when unplugged

i have an hp dv5 1006 ax
with ati mobility radeon hd 3400
my games run smooth when plugged in but once unplugged it becomes slow and jerky
i tried setting the power options . it didnt help
any alternatives.. pls help

this is caused from your power settings utilizing your switchable graphics. go in your power settings and you can set it to not do that but then your battery will die faster.

My Macbook Pro runs VERY slow when unplugged. The battery charges and runs ok. Ran an SMC reset (no success), Safe mode (did not work), and hardware check (came back ok). What can I try next to fix this?

Hello all,
I am new to posting on this forum but I really hope that someone out there can help me out. I have a 13" MacBook Pro, 2.53 GHz Core 2 Duo, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3, running OSX 10.6.8. My problem is that when I unplug the laptop form the charger and run it on the battery, the computer becomes unresponsive to any commands at all. It basically really slows down to a crawl. Even when rebooting it will take 5-10 minutes or more to do so. The odd thing is, when it gets plugged back in while any of this is going on, within a minute or two it works perfectly. It has been in a mac authorized repair shop for 7 weeks and has had a new logic board and a new hard drive replaced. The battery was tested and charges fine, holds a charge when unplugged, and the system profile shows the battery at Normal. Recently, many knowledgeable mac enthusiasts gave me tip that might help. Here is what I did: Ran an SMC reboot (no success), rebooted the computer under safe mode then unplugged it to test (no success), and ran a hardware test on the install disk (showed hardware ok)
I am at a loss as to what to do next. It has become impossible to use this laptop for my classes when it is unplugged. I am about ready to just go buy a new one, and call this one a goner.
I am hoping someone reading this can help with any other ideas on its problem. Help? Anyone?

LPBassman,
since the tech in your IT department was able to copy your daughter’s data from her MacBook Pro’s internal disk, I’d suggest completely erasing the internal disk (using Disk Utility in Recovery mode, reformatting it with a “Mac OS Extended (Journaled)” filesystem), reïnstalling its original version of Mac OS X (either Snow Leopard from the grey Mac OS X Install DVD if it originally came with two grey DVDs, or Lion via OS X Internet Recovery if no grey DVDs originally came with it), running Software Update to get it to 10.6.8 or 10.7.5 respectively, reïnstalling Mavericks, running Software Update again to get it up to date, and finally restoring your daughter’s data.

HT1338 network become slow when using bluetooth.

I am using macbook pro retina display, my issue is, every time I turn my bluetooth on, the network become slow. anyone facing a same problem?

A lot of people were experiencing the same thing and reported it on the MacBook Pro forum. But that was when the rMBP first came out and I thought that the issue had been resolved with software/firmware(?) updates.
Are you running the very latest build of 10.8.2? With the supplemental updates as well?

My HP dv6 1030us laptop becomes slow when removed from AC power

Hi,
My HP DV6 laptop has windows 7 operating system and it behaves pretty weirdly .
It becomes really slow when removed from AC Power and have to restart my system to bring it to normal speed don't know why its behaving like that and help to resolve the problem would be greatly appreciated and also my system gets overheated a lot and I have to use a cooling pad always to keep it cool and running properly along with AC power
I would greatly appreciate any advice in resolving these issues.
Thanks in advance.

for how long have you had this laptop... If you had it for longer than a year you may be dealing with a dust bunny (acumulation of dust in the vent that's right beside the fan). Normally when that vent is clogged you get the type of overhetaing you may be experiencing, so i recomend you to open it up and give it a nice clean as soon as you can. As for your computer slowing down without the ac adapter.
Do you know under what power option are you running ur computer?

Why number becomes slow when after formatting function is used?

When changing something at Numbers (table, font, colors, etc), it becomes slower. I don't understant why, as the PC is brand new...

Hi Nano,
How large is the table that you are formatting? Is there a way to separate your results (with formatting) in a small table *away* from your main data table?
Regards,
Ian.

Why has my Ipad become slow when loading Keynote presentations?

I use Keynote on Ipad as a presentation tool. Recently, the Ipad has been slow to load a presentation (up to 3 seconds after selecting a particular presentation). It also randomly updates presentations that haven't been used recently. Any thoughts?

ive let the battery drain itself then recharged it to see if that would make a difference - no difference

Try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If your iPod is with in the one-year warrranty, not abused and defective Apple will replace it.

Site Performing Very Slow on Azure

Hi Guys
I have a site which is performing very slow when deployed on Azure. However, the same site's performance is very good when deployed on our own server. Can you please advise/guide on the possible reasons for this and the way to debug/fix the same.
Let me know if any more details are required from my end.
Thanks

Videos slow when fullscreening?

I have an ATI Radeon Mobility HD 4500 on my laptop which should be more then enough to play flash videos and normal videos at fullscreen,
I also have the catalyst driver installed.. I have also had previous distros on it (fedora and ubuntu) where the flash player worked fine so not sure whats wrong here..
However whenever I fullscreen flash player plugin in firefox (same thing on chrome) it becomes slower and also begins to hang in and out..
This also happens when using vlc, the wierd thing is lets say that vlc is maximised but not fullscreened, if I then fullscreen it it will play fine with no slowness whatsoever. However if vlc is not fullscrened with a small window (i.e. not maximised) and I fullscreen it, it begins to lag and become slow when it is fullscreened..
Flash player is slow all the time when fullscreened however the windows have always started off quite small so this may be the issue.. (runs fine when not at full screen)
Can someone please help me solve this problem?
Thanks in advance!

P.S
Forgot to say I'm using Xfce, compiz is installed but not being used yet..

My performance is very slow when I run graphs. How do I increase the speed at which I can do other things while the data is being updated and displayed on the graphs?

I am doing an an aquisition and displaying the data on graphs. When I run the program it is slow. I think because I have the number of scans to read associated with my scan rate. It takes the number of seconds I want to display on the chart times the scan rate and feeds that into the number of samples to read at a time from the AI read. The problem is that it stalls until the data points are aquired and displayed so I cannot click or change values on the front panel until the updates occur on the graph. What can I do to be able to help this?

It may also be your graphics card. LabVIEW can max the CPU and you

WHen I first installed iOS 6 the App Store crashes...and now having iOS 6 for 2 weeks now, all my apps are buggy and now are crashing! Safari and built in apps are becoming slow and crash. I hate how apple leaves iPod touch 4g and iPhone 4 in the dark.

WHen I first installed iOS 6 the App Store crashes...and now having iOS 6 for 2 weeks now, all my apps are buggy and now are crashing! Safari and built in apps are becoming slow and crash. I hate how apple leaves iPod touch 4g and iPhone 4 in the dark and basically force us to upgrade to newer devices. Apple could of done better with the update and needs to resolve these issues.

Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

IPad 2 has become very slow when charging

Since I upgraded to ios 7, my iPad 2 has become very slow when charging. And the battery drained very fast. I cannot put it on standby but need to power off completely when I am not using it. This is very troublesome.

Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Then restart the iPad.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, then swipe the slider to power off.
Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Then try charging the battery.
