    Hi guys,

    Ive found the cause of my aero lag... The nvs140m GPU keeps clocking its self right down when its not in use, and as soon as activate flip3d, there is a bit of lag while the gpu clocks itself back up to 400/600mhz, once its clocked up its really fast, but after a few seconds of no use it clocks back down again!

    Ive tried changing the power settings to "Maximum Performance" (with ThinkPad Power Manager)

    The laptop is very very rarely on battery so id rather just disable this "feature" and maintain a smooth Vista interface

    Cheers guys,
    Will
