I cant believe it but this is what I found out.
When I ran 3D mark2006 on battery, I achieve about 4500Marks.
When adapter is plugged in, I got the same result.
However, when I completely remove battery, system run on its max performance and achieve avarage result of 9300Marks.
Could some notebook gurus help me to solve this issue please?
Basically, system run on max performance just with removed battery and ac adapter plugged in.

Check your power management settings to make sure that the system is always set to run at high performance (i.e., no power-saving features enabled).
-
List your SM2.0/SM3.0/CPU scores, so we know where the problem is.
-
SM2.0 is about 1200, same with SM3.0
CPU is 2510.
There is problem with GPU.
Of course I have high performance profile in Vista. -
update drivers maybe.
remember to fully remove the old drivers before installing the new ones.
.... but that score seems fine to me.... OS may need tweaking to disable the resource hogs. -
average 9300 is spot on.
last time i had a drop like that was on my m15x
it dropped from 10,000 to 3000 within 2 weeks of opening box and the problem was a fried motherboard.
before you start panicking lets hopefully try and prove its not that.
have you got 3dmark06 set at its default resolution setting of 1280x1024 if not that can make a huge difference.
edit:
when you mentioned above about doing the test on battery and then on mains power, did you close 3dmark06 and then re open it to run it again or did you run it then plug mains in and run it again. -
Anyway, i cant get to 9000result anymore. Now I am stuck around 3500 again.
It is like on the roller coaster, one time I removed battery and worked, now It does not work anymore.
It is slow eaither i remove battery, run on battery or plug the cable in.
FF!!!! I contacted Eurocom and he doesnt know the slution either.
-
It was on the same settings every run. My system just doesnt know when to turn off these powersaving utilities.
I tried both ways. Open and close, normal and silent mode and every possible combination. -
i just run the battery test and got a 3dmark06 score of 4584
ran test again without shutting 3dmark06 and got a score of 9248
this most prob wont do anything but turn off and remove battery. wait 5 minutes and replacebattery.plug in mains and turn on.
im sure i read ages ago this actually somehow resets something inside computer. worth a try i suppose.
if that dont work hit it with a hammer. might not help it but it will make you feel a lot better.
Please, help solve the weirdest issue of M860TU
