T500 is lagging

Hello,
I am having troubles with my T500. When I attempt to play a movie or a video game, the computer starts lagging badly. This occurs in most games, regardless of how old the game is or how low I set the video settings. Turning off audio actually seems to help, but on the other hand, it could just because the lag is easier to notice with audio. It occasionally also occurs to a lesser degree when working with heavy applications, such as Adobe CS4.
I have tried updating my audio and video driver, as well as updating codecs (K-Lite). I am on WinXP. The video card is the ATI Radeon HD 3650.
I hope you can help me!

Interestingly, it comes and goes. I frankly do not notice it, as I do not game very often.Two days ago was absolutely horrible. It wouldn't even stream videos off the internet. Yesterday however, everything was fine.
Also, if I'm watching video and it starts lagging, it often helps to close all other applications and switch from VLC to Media Player Classic. Granted, the latter use a little less ressources, but it should have plenty of ressourcesin either case.

  • Feb 2009 T500, SSD performanc​e problems

    I just bought an Intel X25-M 80GB drive (with the updated 8820 firmware) for read only database data files.  I installed an eSata ExpressCard 34 and put the drive in a Rosewill enclosure.  All of these items are rated at 3.0 Gb/s SATA speeds.  But, when I benchmarked the drive it flatlines at around 130 MB/s.  Oddly close to the SATA 1 or UDMA 6, so I looked into the device manager under "SCSI/Raid controllers" and found my SATALink controller.  It reads that the "Host Link Speed" is 3.0 Gb/s, but the current transfer mode is "Ultra DMA 6".  Is there a reason my new T500 laptop isn't able to run at the full speed of the ExpressCard?  I was looking forward to those 250 MB/s reads I've been reading about.

    anti00Zero, thank you for your replies.  I have figured out what is going on with my situation.  It turns out that the SI processor chip on the eSata expressCard has a maximum throughput of 130 MB/s.  There is one other option that would provides a throughput of 200MB/s, but it costs $299.  It's not likely they will sell many of those cards, when one that provides 130 MB/s costs only $45.  In any event, I'll probably end up using the Intel X25 on my desktop because I dont want to have a $400 SSD go to waste at 130 MB/s.  Lenovo T500 is working great.

  • T500 performanc​e loss and restart issue after low battery shutdown

    Hi,
    Some days ago I experienced a significant loss in performance of my T500. Unfortunately it seems to be a continuous loss and the games I play, e.g. empire total war that did run ok before are nearly unplayable at the moment.
    Additionally, when the computer shuts down due to low battery, it no longer manages to resume windows but always crashs during reboot (black screen and hard disk symbol is moving, no other activity for 10 minutes)
    I am working with the standard vista installation and installed all automatic updates, but also every time when I shutdown the computer, no matter how long it has been running (even after 1 minute and after a rebooting 3 minutes ago), the red shutdown symbol in start shows that an update needs to be installed.
    any ideas?
    Many thanks in advance !

    Well, the problem, seem's to have reoccured: Battery ran out (even the indicator leds on the side didn't show any life), Time reset  to 1.1.2001, again some rebooting and setting the time again...
    Is this a sign of a degrading battery health status?
    It looks like reseting the SMC didn't help after all.

    Does anything seen here determine what could cause these occasional lag spikes?

  • There is a lag in typing in the addressbar since FF4

    I'm using a plugin on my Mac called "Keyboard Maestro".
    How I use it:
    I have 2 Firefox windows open in one screen, side by side. I select an email address in window 1. I press the keyboard shortcut that activates keyboard Maestro.
    Maestro then copies the e-mail address, hits Command+` to switch to window 2 of Firefox. It then hits Command+T for a new tab, and types in a URL. Behind the URL it then hits Command+V to paste the e-mail address, and then hits enter.
    This allows me to select an e-mail address in window 1, do the keystroke, and immediately find this e-mail address on an admin page I use for work. (instead of copy, open website, paste, hit search).
    Now the bit where it's typing the address URL (needs to be a new tab) is lagging a lot since Firefox 4! In Firefox 3, the typing was blitzing fast.
    I tried the same keystroke in 2 windows of Safari: blitzing fast like Firefox 3.
    I then tried opening Firefox 4 again: slow again. I then experimented by typing really fast (just gibberish, but as fast as my fingers could move), and I noticed: Firefox4 address bar can not keep up with my typing speed. So there's the error.
    Typing the same speed in Safari and Firefox3? No problem, it keeps up.
    I have 2 add ons running, Xmarks 3.9.7 and Gmail Favicon Notifier 3.10.2
    I don't think it's my Mac, as the typing speed does not lag in Safari or Firefox 3.

    Hi,
    I had also a lag while typing in the addressbar (or the searchbar btw) in Firefox and spent quite some time trying to figure out why.
    I tried Firefox 5 beta, deleting the chronik, the cash etc...
    until I tried to deactivate my addons one by one.
    I have figured out that the addon "speed dial" was responsible for that lag.
    Since I have deactivated it, everything works pretty much instantly.
    Finally !
    Regards

  • Text Input Field Jumps around or lags when inputting text but only with Firefox.

    I normally will use Safari because even now while Firefox, there is a lag between what is typed and what appears on the screen. When I pull down a menu or try to add a bookmark, I have to click on the field at a certain time because the text field is moving side to side. I am unable to capture this effect and copy and paste below. Safari browser does not do this. Some of the sites require that I have Firefox or a more recent browser. I cannot run Google Chrome on my Mac because it is not Intel based. Thank you for your assistance.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After I started using Firefox. This has been happening for a while.

    Try [[Firefox hangs]] (Firefox hangs: Duplicate Session Restore files)
    This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]

  • The difference between how PV is calculated if lag or delay is used in scheduling

    When scheduling tasks, it is possible to add lag from the predecessor (which is useful for an amount of time which must pass before the next task (paint drying, for example), or to add delay (task form\schedule\delay).  Delay seems to be useful for
    adding slack into your project in planning, as it is time that could pass before the next task, but doesn't necessarily have to.
    First - do I have this assessment correct?
    Second - does MSP calculate PV based upon when tasks appear in the schedule regardless of whether they are there due to lag or delay, or do tasks presented with delay assume that they will start straight away, without the delay?
    An aside - the reason that I've been playing with this is because of a bug in the previous version of MSP where an EV graph could not be generated if EV was calculated using physical % complete.  Has this been fixed in MSP 2013?
    Thanks for your help!

    First, the lag (and not delay) in the task form is to be entered in the Predecessors/successors form and not the schedule form. The delay in the schedule form is the delay on an assignment, meaning the delay a resource has on a assignment. And indeed it
    is not required but just an option given to the scheduler.
    The PV (or
    BCWS) is calculated based on this formula:
    timephased baseline costs of the task up to the status date. The lag just implies that the task will occur later in the project, thus the PV will take into account the lag.
    AS per the bug, I couldn't experience it, thus I'll let you or others folks give a feedback on it.
    Hope this helps,

  • WRT310N Playstation 3 Slow Download speed and general lag

    Hey guys, I just recently bought the WRT310N and got both of my computers working with it. One is wired directly into the router, while the other is running off wireless. My Playstation 3 is able to connect to the router but I am getting an extremely slow connection speed.
    Right now, both PC's get about 6.4-6.5 Mbps download speed while my Playstation is anywhere from 600 Kbs to 1.2 Mbps. I have plugged in my Playstation 3 directly into the modem and got a speed of 3.2 Mbps and was downloaded a demo very fast, but I do not recieve anywhere near those results when using it wireless.
    Any advice? I have tried opening the ports, but that only seemed to slow it down. A couple of days ago I opened the ports specific to the game NHL 10 and for two days I was getting such a good speed in the game that it felt like I was playing offline, which was great! Then this morning, it just seemed do a complete 180. Now when I play the game I get an extreme amount of lag, and my other games like CoD4 get random lag spikes. Like, I'll be running and I get a lag spike which seems to happen fairly consistently every minute or so.
    Any advice? Should I try opening the ports again or what?

    I think you need to adjust the wireless settings of your Router, The wireless settings on your Router must have been setup to its default that's the reason you are receiving low signal strength on your PS3.
     Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
    Click on the Wireless tab
    - Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
    - Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
    - Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
    Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
    For Wireless Security : -
    Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
    Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
    NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
    Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
    Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

  • Apps "not responding" and general lag

    More than ever it seems apps are freezing and then the message that the app "not responding" comes up and do we want to wait or close. Is there any fix ? Also, my phone still has lag which is possibly uncurable ?  Sony making no friends here - a kitkat upgrade would be welcome but isn't coming ! One thing I did do was disable Chrome and install CM browser for android - makes searching less painful and would recommend.

     You could reinstall the latest update with PCC Keep in mind that apps are getting heavier and hardware demanding, chrome its known to have an issue at the moment, memory leak, and the Xperia SP has only 1GB of RAM not an ideal combination with this latest updates on apps. 

  • What is wrong with my 2730p? (Lag, Mouse Device Problems)

    long story short, i have been having tremendous usability issues with my laptop, including mouse problems and tremendous lag (both with and without the hdd), and missing/broken system files which sfc/ scannow fails at fixing.
    the system in question has an L9400 cpu, 4 gigs of ram, vista business and linux mint 11 installed in a dual boot configuration to a toshiba  mk1633gsg mini sata  hdd, and there are also many livecds and liveusbs that are used with this pc.
    an hp technician on another forum has informed me that these issues may be indicative of a failing hdd, and it has been made apparent by many other users on some other forums that toshiba hdds have a pretty bad reputation ... however, after removing the hdd and running the system from a livecd, i have surprisingly encountered many new problems:
    (the following occurs with the hdd removed)
    a linux mint 6 live cd which works perfectly fine for all other tested systems gets stuck while loading the os. it either gets stuck while loading "acpi modules" or " /casper/vmlinuz" or, if it can get past those, the os loading progress bar gets stuck at approximately the same place each time, where it will stay motionless until the system quits on its own and spits out this error: "isolinux: disk error 01, ax = 4200, drive 9f"
    the laptop can boot from a linux mint 11 livecd about 50-60 percent of the time. the other 40-50 percent of the time, it also gets stuck at loading "acpi modules" or " /casper/vmlinuz" BUT if it can get to the screen where there is a progress bar, it tends to load the os completely.
    while running from a linuxmint 11 livecd with the hdd removed, in a very well conditioned room, suddenly:
    with about 15-20 tabs open, after watching a few youtube videos, i lost ctrl-v paste.
    then i lost right click functionality,
    then i lost the ability to alt-tab into other open programs,
    then i lost the ability to click on anything other than what is within the firefox window (i could click on all of the browser buttons, all of the tabs, all of the links but i could not shrink or minimize the window or switch to another program).
    then there was lag when saving a txt file to a portable hdd.
    this is utterly bizzare. with the ram passing 8 hours of memtest86 without errors and with the hdd removed and with only about 20 tabs open, what could be causing these problems?
    furthermore, with the hdd attached:
    in vista and linuxmint 11 (both installed to hdd), the mouse problems are currently:
    the right mouse button becomes unresponsive after about 3-7 tabs are opened in firefox OR after a large video file is opened in vlc,
    the left mouse button will randomly lose functionality after about 10 tabs are opened OR after a large video file is opened in vlc (the lmb will randomly work in some windows and not in others or it becomes completely unresponsive),
    usb mice which used to work perfectly fine are no longer recognized and
    the pen may not work at all upon boot.
    furthermore, there have been 2 longstanding mouse problems that have been with this pc for as long as the current hdd has been in use;
    the left mouse button becomes completely unresponsive in flash games (while still working outside of the game) when a moderate number of targets appear (5 enemies),
    and the pen has the strange tendency to connect the leading points of successive dashes and lines shortly after those lines are drawn (eg: if i draw a lowercase t, with one line going downward and the other going from left to right, the resulting figure will look like a cross for about .25 seconds before it suddenly and inexplicably transforms into a 'number 4' shape with a very thin line connecting the leading edges of the 2 dashes), thus making it completely useless for drawing and handwriting recognition.
    prior to the hdd scans, these mouse problems would occur without fail about 15 seconds (and no sooner, strangely) after the enter password screen appears on vista or immediately upon boot in linuxmint and there would also be incredible lag associated with every mouse click in both vista and linuxmint (including an extra lag of about 7-30 seconds every 3 seconds in vista).
    this is the 2nd hdd to fail in this laptop in 2 years, albeit both hdds had a few years of use.
    the following TESTS have been conducted:
    ran the embedded hp hdd and memory diagnostics , passed with no errors , had no effect
    the hdd passed seatools' long test , and the ram passed 8 hours of memtest86 with both sticks of ram connected. i have not (yet) attempted to run memtest with the reverse orientation or with each stick by itself.
    here is the crystaldisk info report:
    [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/35/l9ql.png/]l9ql.png[/URL]
    the hdd instafailed both smartudm and the 'toshiba smart' test (from hirens boot cd 15.2 )due to not detecting an ide drive.  
    the toshiba error was: 'NG device defective' ...
    the smartudm error was: 'error, ide drive not found'
    here are the temps accoding to CPUID  HWMonitor 1.23:

    clicking the health tab of the free version of hdtune (to check the SMART status) causes the program to become unresponsive.

    ran sfc /scannow ... found numerous missing and broken dlls ... more info in this link:
    http://www.pchelpforum.com/xf/threads/hardware-tests-for-malfunctioning-laptop-2730p.154894/#post-99...
    the operating temps are not the highest they've ever been ... between 37-40 degrees celcius
    ac adapter voltage (checked with multimeter) is perfectly stable and within parameters ...
    pc wizard 2012 crashes immediately upon starting and restarts into debug mode ...
    another disk check, following a hard shutoff, has resulted in more stabilized behavior; lag and mouse problems only occur if a certain (small) amount of system resources are used (3 tabs in firefox before problems start occuring).
     is it possible that some other problem is causing the hdds to fail? i'm wondering if there may be a capacitor problem or something ...
    there are some new problems:
    i get this message: 'Non-System disk or disk error' (with the main hdd connected) despite the fact that no external drives are connected. usually, turning the pc off and on again resolves this, but i wonder if this is indicative of a bigger issue.
    also, it is really difficult to boot from usb for some reason; despite attempting many methods, hirens boot cd had to be burned to a cd before i could use it.

  • Horrible video skip / lag problem - once per second in all apps!

     I built a new system last month (my first AMD) and I am having a really aggravating problem. In all games and all video playback I get an annoying skip once per second, every second. It affects sound during gameplay but not during movie or mp3 playback. It even happens with the visualization mode in Windows Media Player.
    My system is as follows: MSI K8N Neo4-F, A64 3200+ venice core, MSI 6800GT 256MB PCI-E, two sticks of Corsair valueselect DDR400 512MB each, 500 watt PS, 160GB 7200 SATA HDD. Most recent NVIDIA drivers for everything. WinXP Pro with SP2 and all updates, DX9C. Nothing overclocked, all settings standard.
    I have tried the following solutions:
    1) BIOS upgrades, started with 1.4, installed 1.5, MSI tech support gave me 1.6b2 and I installed that. No luck with any of them.
    2) Memory, installed per MSI directions, but I've tried all legal combinations, including one stick at a time. No change.
    3) full format and reinstall of WinXP. No luck.
    4) Switching between WinXP IDE drivers and NVidia drivers, with and without RAID drivers, No luck.
    5) Removal of 6800GT PCI-E card and replacing with Ancient 8MB PCI Permedia2 video card. Problem still persists.
    6) Disable onboard sound and LAN. No luck.
    7) Running Fedora core 4 on second partition. Installed Nvidia video drivers, tried some games. THIS WORKS! No hitch, no skip, no nothing. Framerates are noticably slower but very stable. In WinXP I saw framerates bounce all over the place, from 230 FPS down to about 70 with one game. That same game on Linux ran smoothly at about 166 FPS with only occasional slight drops. The big FPS drops in Windows usually came right after one of the skips but didn't occure after every skip.
    Right now I'm stumped. Linux uses totally different drivers for sound, LAN and SATA support. Some of those drivers don't fully use the Nforce4 chipset's features, maybe that's part of the difference.

    Thanks TireSmoke:
    I had found that sticky, but I took your advice and went thorugh it in detail last night.  Lots of great info, fixes tweaks and tools, sadly none of them fixed my problem.  The lag problem most people are reporting is not really like the wierd problem I am having.  I have tried the recoommended fixes with ablsolutely no change in my system's behavior.
    I am beginning to suspect a faulty motherboard component.
    Russ_XP:
    I think you are correct about fast writes.  I googled the heck out of that last night and couldn't find any reference to enabling or disabling fast writes on PCI-E.
    The drive is SATA-1.  The Neo4-F is not SATA-2 enabled (there is a hack for it though).  From memory I think it's a Western Digital WD1600-something, 7200 RPM dirve.  I've tried it on both SATA buses and tried disabling the unused bus in BIOS.
    I'm pretty sure I can dig up an old PATA drive somewhere and give that a try.
    Gpalmer:
    True enough, and I don't have these problems under Fedora.  Sadly this is a cross-platform game development box, I need both XP and Fedora working.
    Black_God:
    Nope, this is a clean install.  Although I wonder, could any of the built in XP update and security tools be causing this?  I have disabled Windows firewall and virus protection monitoring.

  • Fan Error Lenovo T500 T510 T400 T410 T60 T61 - rejuvinating the fan

    I finally got that dreaded "Fan Error" at boot time on my T500.  After some research on this board, this is what I have concluded:
    1-  hit Escape, and the machine will boot.  It can do a lot of stuff without a fan turning.  Gaming caused it to overheat.  Either the processor would slow down (by being intermittant) or you get the black screen of death.
    2-  It is relatively easy to follow the Hardware Maintenence Manual and remove the fan and heatsink assembly.  Once the assembly is removed, pry open the fan, and remove the blades and clean and lubricate the shaft.  My fan restarted, and the Fan Error went away.  No need to replace the fan.
    3-  Unfortunately the machine overheats now (black screen of death), even though the fan does operate.  I traced this to a too liberal application of the thermal joint compound.  Made the compound a very thin film, and that seems to have helped.  Also when replacing heat sink assembly and before bolting it, wiggle it while pressing on it so the thermal joint compound spreads itself at the surfaces of contact.  This seems to have helped.
    Anything else that you may want to add to this thread?

    Thanks a lot! It makes sense.
    Yes, I have been using the ESC bypass for some time, untill I really could not stand by anymore--the over heating.
    I am thinking about manipulating the fan 'manually', if it could pass the booting, very good; if not, it's not completely unacceptable to run a small program@startup along with the work.
    Not ready to say bye yet,  will keep trying.  
    Thanks again!  
    So if you hit ESC, does your fan work normally, or do you overheat?  I had the impression that your fan would work normally if you hit ESC.
    My fan was always a problem on the T500 (not on my new W540).  It was extremely noisy and was constantly on even at no load times.  So I opened the laptop and cut one of the 3 wires on the fan (I am sure it is a power wire), and installed a manual switch.  So when the thing overheated, I could manually turn the fan on.  This worked for about a week and then something gave up, and the fan stopped working altogether.  (don't fix something that is not broken!)  I had to take the front cover off, and place a PC fan in the top left corner to cool the radiator.  This was not as effective as the original fan, but let me do my job.  Then the loose switch on this ersatz fan one day accidentallyshorted the fluoroscent backlight PC board of my display and I lost my display backlight!  I had to pry open my display and using two 60W bulbs project light to the back of the LCD so I could read the display!  This is when I decided to punt and ordered the W540.  The fan is quiet and works when it has to work.

  • "not responding" message across the top of mozilla several times a day and my entire computer lags when I receive that message.

    about two to three weeks ago mozilla started to lag on occasion with the "not responding" message across the top of the browser. it would freeze while i was playing facebook games or while i was watching youtube videos or just trying to scroll down a page, so i used my laptop less and less hoping the rest period would help stop it from lagging and from not responding. now that i have uninstalled useless programs and freed up hard drive space it is still lagging a lot. i even updated to 9.01 and updated the plug-ins that i use and it still lags.

    Have you recently upgraded is so i suggest you run it in safe mode first.
