Okay this is something that has been really annoyingthe past few days and I have been doing a lot of research on this but I've not had any luck so far. Now the problem is that I am using the 77.72 forceware drivers for the go 6200 TC and everytime I have to reset the settings once I switch on my S380 . What I mean to say is that under the Powermizer tab , the settings automatically reset themselves to Maximum Power Savings and I have to switch them to Maximum Performance everytime I start my notebook . I wonder if you guys can help me on this.

Hi there,

I believe the value at startup is determined by the Power-Saving Mode value found under Control Panel->Power Options->Vaio Power Management.

The option is on or off, for each either plugged in or running on batteries. I've found that when off, the powermizer option is set at maximum performance. And conversely, maximum power savings when on.

Regards
