    Has anyone else noticed that their NP8660 gets better battery life on High Performance than Power Saver?

    When I switch to power saver the CPU usage ranges from 10% to 30% on average id say it stays around 17% at idle

    When itÂ’s on High Performance it idles at 2% to 5%

    Is there any way to correct this problem or has anyone else seen the same problem?
