    Hi,
    So basically I've been noticing some slowdowns in games.
    I thought this was a heat issue at first, but it seems that I only have such slowdowns while I have my laptop hooked up to my external monitor (Samsung Syncmaster 2043NW).
    Upgrading drivers had no effect, and on the game I tested, to see if this ocurred without my external monitor, I used the same resolution as I use normally on my external monitor while playing (1024x768).
    I do have some monitor drivers and monitor-related bloatware installed, but that shouldn't do any difference, right ?
    Any ideas on how to solve this ?
    Thanks in advance.
