What's wrong with computer? Performance issue...

Ok so I have the Mac Pro (2008) with 10 GB of ram and the 8800 GT. Why does it stutter when I rotate the chess board in the chess game? It's not the most taxing thing in the world so why would this system seemingly have trouble with such a task?

so EA's Madden runs at 60 FPS on xbox360 while on the ps3 it was capped at 30 FPS. there was a huge controversy regarding this last year. Explain why.
ut2004 ran at more than 55 FPS on both my jan early 2008 mbp and this new penryn mbp. chess stutters on both of these machines. do you get my point?

How to find quickly what's wrong with the performance of a BW Query?

Hi All,
After a long time, I had to work on performance tuning of a query, Version BI 7.0 EHP 1, SP7.
Compression in done, BI Stats are running, showing that OLAP time is high almost 70%, compared to 20% DB Read time.
Aggregates cannot be created due to the nature of the cube, BIA is out of scope.
How to find quickly, step by step, what's wrong with a particular query.
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,
- Shashi

Hi Sashi ,
1. OLAP time is more, you need to increase OLAP cache, you have different options for the query in RSRT t-code..
Select properties which makes to store the query result set in OLAP Cache for permanent.

2.Use only less no of Characteristics in the initial report. Place remaining in Free characteristics.
3.You need to check the query .It cmod code exist for any variable or your query have lots of navigational attributes then try to check for code efficiency .
4.If Front End time more then try to avoid the more characteristics in displaying the query result.
5.Use authorization objects on queries if possible .That will reduce data amount .
6.Use query read mode and global structures as when possible.

Anyone guess what is wrong with this battery issue?

A couple of weeks ago I noticed something unusual... it showed "not charging" in the indicator instead of a percentage... I just never seen it show up like that but it was shown that way at 93%...so I wasn't too worried. I was told to calibrated my battery. Before I calibrated my battery I let it drop down to 85% and it wouldn't recharge at all until after a while and it did start to charge, although slowly and not consistently (went from green to orange). Then I let it drain all the way and it recharged up fine and showed the steady orange. I noticed when I would use it since then it'd never show it recharging back up like it used to ("trickle")... but when I put my computer to sleep and woke it up I noticed it had recharged and whatnot. Maybe I didn't calibrate it right? I don't think I let it sleep for 5 hours. But I'm not sure if that will even fix the problem. I cleaned the magsafe adapter and the connector just in case but I don't think a dirty adapter is the problem. Something makes me think something's wrong with the logic board or battery? Am I jumping to conclusions? I didn't touch the computer after last Sunday and when I woke the computer up on Wednesday it showed "Not Charging" at 82%...I let it drop to 75% and it still says not charging with a green light. Great. I don't know what to do...I think mine is a built in battery MBP so I don't even know how to check it. I've only had this computer for 17 months. Should I trust local repairs to look at my computer? I don't really have a lot to spend... I have never been mobile with it so it's fine as a desktop but it's not ideal, especially if you were to lose it if you were working on it. I've already tried the SMC and it did nothing...unless I didn't do it right... anyone else know what I could do to try to fix the problem on my own? I'm worried about recalibrating it and it not charging back up, probably won't happen but it's in the back of my mind of constant worry.
Here's my info:

Ok here are my recommendations for your consideration:
Goto the “apple “on your top menu bar. Click 1stoption (About this Mac) a small screen will appear
andclick on “More Info...which will take to a large another smallscreen with Mac Book Pro in huge
letterslike this: MacBookPro.
Nextgo the “Systems Report” button: press.
NextUnder “Hardware” on the left you'll see “Power” click that.Volia the battery info
Nowlets do an analysis of the info: here's mine a 2 mo. Old 17” MBP:
ModelInformation:
SerialNumber:     ****************** (not shown by me)
Manufacturer:     DP

Condition:     Normal
BatteryInstalled:     Yes
Amperage(mA):     2131
Voltage(mV):     12534
OK under“Charge Information” you see my MBP currently at 7806mAh (mstands Milli
which is 10 tothe -3 power) which translates to 7.806 Amp hours in non-techiespeak. As you see on mine Full Charge Capacity is 8.488 Amp hours.
Ok under healthyou see my cycle count is 17. Your very low cycle count 31 reflects that you are not “conditioning” your battery by runningit on battery till 5 minute warning or going to sleep and then fullyrecharging it! You've had it ~18 mo. And your dooming your battery to a short life.
Condition your battery for a long life.
Please notethis is a super battery 2.131 Amps @ 12.534Volts which Apple sayswill last 7 hours. Real world experience is significantly less withLion OS installed.

What's Wrong with My Computer?

I have a G5 desktop computer, I believe it's referred to as a "Power Mac." My mom purchased it some years ago, I think in late 2005 shortly after this particular model was on the market.
Info is:
Version 10.5.8
Processor 4 x 2.5 GHz PowerPC G5
Memory 4.5 GB DDR2 SDRAM
Hard Drive 240 GB (127 GB unused/available)
My mother wasn't using this computer for many years, and my 13" Macbook was giving me trouble, so she gave this one to me. It's all been great (she maxed out the memory and hard drive space when she bought it, even though it is outdated and insignificant compared to current models), except for one little thing... Browsing the internet is usually fine when it's only one window, but not always. However, it is almost a guarantee that while trying to operate multiple windows and trying to play a video, Safari will crash. And not just once in awhile. I'm talking about on a daily basis. During regular offline computer use, like Photoshop or iTunes, the computer will sometimes grey over (as if someone put a fairly thick grey film over the entire screen), and tell me I have to restart the computer. So what's wrong with it? I presume it is a physical issue (failing memory, mother board, etc.), but what?

Your computer is not remotely "maxed out" with RAM.
You're describing a G5 Quad like mine (though mine was built in June of 2006), and maxed out means having 16 GB of RAM installed, like mine has.

That's called a Kernel Panic, and, yes, it is most often caused by hardware problems, such as bad RAM or mismatched RAM. I can't imagine how you get to 4.5 GB of RAM without exponentially increasing the risk of mismatched RAM.
RAM has to be installed in matched pairs, starting from the center slots and spreading outward: 4*3*2*1*1*2*3*4
On the other hand, my own personal experience has led me to conclude that Safari is a piece of cr@p. It causes problems just being active in the background, causing other applications to fail.
Check your RAM carefully, starting with just one pair of matched RAM sticks in the two center slots, then adding one pair at a time. Check your hard disk with Apple's Disk Utility.
The kernel panics can be caused by a damaged directory too, so if you own Disk Warrior, run it. If you don't own DiskWarrior, at least Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility and use Verify Disk/Repair Disk with it.
I'd also recommend downloading and installing Applejack and run it according to the instructions.
Good luck.

What's wrong with the "guided tours"? They won't work on my computer OR my ipad??

The videos all work fine for me. The functioning and performance of these videos have nothing to do with Adobe.
When problems with video appear they often are related to temporary Internet slowdowns or just poor Internet bandwidth.

What is wrong with it?it won't charge when it's powered on only when it s off then it turns on and stops charging?? What's wrong with it ad how much is a Genius Bar appt at apple stores??

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I am experiencing the same thing on log out, not all the time but too often. I can get going again by shutting down with the power button, waiting 10 sec. then pressing the power button to boot up again. I have run Disk Utilities, Techtool Deluxe and Disk Warrior which all indicate everything is OK. So I am hoping someone will be able to help us with this issue.

I am getting the error "We're sorry we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time. Please try again later." on both my iPhone and iTunes on my computer. What is wrong with iTunes? Is the server down or what? I need to download some things and update some apps...

I've been getting the same message for like an hour now. Since everything was working fine a few hours ago, and nothing changed on my end before it stopped working, I'm guessing it's something on Apple's end. They probably already know about it by now, and are hopefully working on fixing it, so there's probably not much we can do but wait for them to fix it.

What's wrong with my computer/browser?

http://screenr.com/gzr8
I can't figure out what is wrong with my browser. Any ideas?
It might be flash, silverlight, etc?

Here is the link, which was also listed above: http://www.screenr.com/gzr8
The problem is that some images, videos, etc. are not showing up when I am using an internet browser (chrome or firefox). The video shows this visually which is hard to explain without seeing it.

Adobe - what is wrong with you?

Do you need to go that cheap with your testing? One minute after installing the 10.3 update on a CLEAN win7x64 build using IE9 standard (no extras) and any site using flash, especially forums with Google ads slow to a crawl, especially editing a post or entering any text is an exercise of extreme frustration. It is silly to have to wait 3 minutes for your cursor to appear to enter one character in a post.
This means, you guys didn't bother to do the most basic testing with 10.3 - and with a company your size I have to ask, "What is wrong with you?" Not only is this lazy and incompetant, but evebn worse you have somewhat of a monopoly monopoly on this type of content. There is simply no excuse for this and this isn't the first time you've screwed the pooch as of late. It was super fun fixing your security loopholes that delivered trojans right through computer systems via your flash ads.
If you can't manage this application, if you can't perform the most basic net tests - then sell this business segment off to someone more competant... hopefully someone who's not so inconsiderate as to fill our computer's with unecessary bloat (cue Adobe Reader).
Sorry for ranting.

Hi,
I'm sorry that you're encountering problems. From your edit I'm guessing you've seen this post, but if you haven't please review it for details and a few workarounds.
I know this is frustrating, and we do apologize. We do testing on many systems, but for whatever reason we missed this issue with Intel HD Graphics GPU's. If you're running into problems with another display adapter please let me know so we can investigate further.
Thanks,
Chris
