Video pwnt 7805

I want to watch full screen videos on CNN or IGN or Yahoo Music but I CAN'T! It drives me nuts. Every time the video maxes out my cpu and the video stutters. Does this happen with you guys? Youtube is better now, my roommate told me they shortened the code or something... idk. But HD video on youtube plays fine.. but the video stutters on full screen with every other site.


Does this happen to you guys?

 

Try this.

 

Thank you Maverick!

What the hell is it meant for anyways?

 

i was gonna suggest getting a driver that supports powermizer, and also get powermizer.
what is that maverick suggested? never heard of that solution..

 

or just download the powermizer switch i have been using this for a while works great. http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=273276

 

I don't use battery. Does it have any effects otherwise?

 

Did that solve the issue ? Guess it did.

 

Ya it did. It uses half the cpu it used to.

What does the accelerator do? I don't notice any difference in quality.

 

Well its not just for when your on battery i am never on battery powermizer is always on no matter it your on battery or not. so it does stop the problem from happening.

 

I should say its something Adobe has to fix. In future with the newer version of flash just enable and see if it works else leave it disabled. Why bother if you dont see any dip in performance of any kind.

 

or use dox 196.52 drivers

 

Okay, I'm my school play some basketball on espn and it IS the powermizer. I turned it off and even with hardware acceleration on the video used 25% cpu as compared to 100% cpu. I still have no idea what hardware acceleration does though.

Go Illini! lol

 

I freaking love this computer

 

If you want to keep powermizer on to keep the GPU cooler, I suggest u use the drivers I mentioned. Go Blue!

I have the latest official nvidia driver? Does dox have powermizer built in? I'm currently using the side .exe that someone here developed.

K back on topic...

 

That Dox driver is a pain in the to install. I forgot how to do the manual install which is what you have to do it install it.

 

No, just run the .exe get them at laptopvideo2go.com

 

The .exe doesn't work for me. I saw on the forum that other people are having problems with it too. The driver is 195.62. I want to try it because dox is usually slightly faster than stock drivers.

 

Nvm got it to work. No performance gain from nvidia 195.62

Thanks for the suggestion though.
