|
Answer» Hello, ive got a problem with my drivers, ive run the driverzone scan and installed my CHIPSET drivers but when i reboot and run the scan agian there still not there. and i cant acces speed-step in my bios..SpeedStep is also called "EIST", if there is no EIST then see if there are any options to toggle C-States (C1, C1e, C3, C4, and C6, for example) if there are, disable all of them. If your BIOS doesn't have that either then we have to configure it in Windows. Under Control Panel – open Power Options Set both the Minimum Processor State and Maximum Processor State to 100%.

Also, what is the model of the motherboard of your laptop?Quote from: Guldlossen on March 30, 2012, 11:54:34 AM I have CPU usage drops when i play any games, causing game frezzes and i suspect that this might be the problem. In addition to Power Settings throttling down, it could be caused by heat issues. I'd check your temperatures.I recently bought a laptop cooler because i thought that might have been the problem but, even tho its the temps are much better now it still lags (also cleaned the fan and such) Theres like almost no options in the BIOS... i tried to turn off visualization, but that didnt work either and i could acually not see the differance at all... but thats prolly because i dont know what it is :p Tried the power options settings but no luck.. The HDD light is defferantly frezzed in flashing when it lags! MoBo: Compal PBL21 (learned the word in the chat! ) i recently updated the driver from 1,6 to 2,7 i think or something like that. Thanks for the help so far Quote from: Guldlossen on April 02, 2012, 12:51:37 PM The HDD light is defferantly frezzed in flashing when it lags! Do you mean that the HDD light just stays on and doesn't flash when the lags happen? Maybe its just the game trying to load a map for a portion of your game level... How frequent are the CPU drops? Every minute? Every 5 minutes?I'd find out what manuf. that HDD is and DLoad and run the Free diagnostics on it... BTW how much Free Space is on it ? ?Its more like every 10 secounds or something... it makes gaming impossible. Theres 300 gb free space. Next up findin the munf and trying that out Quote from: Guldlossen on April 03, 2012, 01:47:37 PM Its more like every 10 secounds or something... it makes gaming impossible....Then its probably not the hard drive...there's a reason that games have a "Loading..." screen on them... We'll test the hard drive later after we have factored out the more common problems that you may have. I have 3 ideas at this point: 1) Test the RAM out with http://www.memtest86.com Download and burn to a CD and run for 10 passes. 2) How many antivirus programs do you have running at the same time? If only 1, try to temporarily stop the real-time protection and then see if your lags persist... 3) Update to the latest graphics drivers here: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/indexsg.aspx?lang=en-us (version 296.10), and after you are done whenever you launch a game you should: Run with the high-performance nVidia processor.I got he latest gfx driver but i dont see that option like on the picture 0o Tried to turn avg off but it still lags, havnt gotten around to tring out the test cdYeah run the Memtest86+ and report back. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Zh4HCadTY_A How to use the Optimus feature and run with the nVidia graphics on your laptop. Optimus should be a part of the graphics drivers and should install automatically... In the comments, there is a person who is experiencing lags due to the computer not being able to switch properly. Quote Yes, thanks for the response, I solved this with nvidia driver update. First I tried to update it using nvidia controll panel and it said that update is complete so I thought my driver is up to date. But this piece of crap deceived me! I opened control panel → installing/removing apps and noticed that nvidia driver is still outdated.One user's comment that may help.I looked though the video but i have no such options... downloaded the newst driver agian but i still dont have the options like in the video (Forgot in the post that it doest matter what graphics the game is on it still lags... even on the lowest gfx settings) |
