Slow deployments to the OSD E7240

Hello:

I'm working on a project where I deploy a customized image of Windows 7 to a range of laptops Dell via SCCM 2012 OSD. We have recently added the Latitude E7240 to our supported models list and I see a problem where the deployment task sequence is taking almost two times longer on this model it does on other models of Dell (E4310, 6320 and several in between), in particular on the task to "Setup Windows and ConfigMgr". All other things being equal, I usually see the task sequence completes in 48-55 minutes on the older models and a minimum of 1 hour and 10 minutes to a maximum of 1 hour and 45 minutes on the 7240. The only variable in the task sequence is driver packs.

Has anyone seen similar problems with the deployment of images for this model?

Sure thing.  I wrote actually just a quick blog about how I did it.  Check it out here: http://deploymentramblings.wordpress.com/2013/10/24/osd-injecting-the-windows-7-kernel-mode-driver-framework-kmdf/

    Thanks to all those of you who looked at my problem and made suggestions to solve them.

    I decided to go there and try Chrome.

    Since it was not an agreement on the solution to my problem solid (different approaches have been proposed) and I had already tried one number of other approaches based on firefox help, I decided that I had invested enough time to solve the problem and that I would move.

    I always use firefox on my other computer with Windows Vista because I do NOT feel the creeping slowness problem and that he had to constantly restart firefox to regain normal performance on this computer. It uses the same version of firefox.

    Thank you all...

    Hello

    I use V14.0.1

    I had simliar problems both at home and at work while using Firefox. IE and chrome works very well in these two places.

    While I am at home, and not using any proxy, it worked after disbaling spdy i.e. network.http.spdy.enabled set to false.

    However, when I'm at work (by browsing through a proxy, Ironport in this case) and it does not work. I noticed that it is not only the keyword google search or google sites, but none of the https / ssl working site. He invites me repeatedly for authentication of the proxy, and even if I type my proxy username and password, it does not work.

    I have been with older versions of firefox for a while and have not had this kind of problem before.

    Any idea?

  • Re: Satellite A200 LEFP6 is slow after updating the BIOS

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Toshiba.

    2 days ago, I installed a new driver BIOS on the computer. Since then, a laptop computer is running much more slow then normal. I don't know what to do?
    I want to get the previous Bios driver but I don't know how to do it and I don't wont to do the biggest problem that I have now.

    I chose good driver for my 'machine', Vista 32-bit (http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/eula/info_eng2.asp).
    Can you help me???

    I also have one more problem. My cd/dvd drive does not read the cd drive.
    Is it possible that the problem is Vista? Because a few months ago, I had a similar problem with cd/dvd player. This day someone we the internet forum advice change me something in (I'm not sure) a registry file.

    It is a good solution because the disappearance of the problem and everything was working properly until this month.

    Thanks for any help,
    So I hope you understand my English :)
    Nice day

    Hello

    Currently, the European driver Toshiba page provides a Vista 32 bit version of BIOS 2.50.
    Don't forget that your BIOS has been updated to 2.50. You can check in the BIOS settings.

    In addition, I also recommend setting the default BIOS.
    This can be done in the BIOS itself.

    But generally it s not easy t say why your laptop is slower. To be honest I don t understand what you mean by running a lot more slow then normal
    The laptop starts more slowly? Or what's a problem exactly?

    So now a few tips about you, CD/DVD drives issue;
    Yes, sometimes the windows sets some filter values in the registry and this may affect the functionality of CD/DVD drive.

    Check this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=37430&TSTART=0

    There you can find the solution.
    And here is the link to the useful program that removes these registry values

  • Satellite P300-150: slow processor during the test with the id tool intel

    Hello

    I just bought a Satellite P300-150 and it was working well in general... play lotro with few problems, but not in dx10 cos it chuggs as hell.

    I noticed he had a genuine problem of warhead of the crisis in the recommended settings, but thought it was just cos he couldn't do.

    But I downloaded the untilty of Intel processor id and he gave the following results... as you can see on the bottom 4 lines the processor is very upset with the expected results for the frequency and buses (fewer than half actually).

    Intel recommends if there is a huge gap, I need to contact the manufacturer... which brought me here.
    Any advice before contacting tech support directly?
    Just maybe I can play warhead after all! : o).

    Hello

    Satellite P300-150 was equipped with the Intel Core 2 Penryn T8300 processor.
    This processor supports Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology.

    Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology allows the system to dynamically adjust the tension and the processor core frequency. This means that the CPU doesn't always work with maximum performance, but only if it of needed. This helps minimize the heat dissipation and allows to secure the battery energy!

    The CPU seems to be slow check with the Intel ID tool ;)

    For more information on Intel Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology check out these articles from Intel:

  • Very slow to launch the desktop files/programs

    Can anyone suggest a solution? Thank you

    Hello

    It is not easy to give you a proper answer to that kind of question because we don't know how to use this device is installed and configured. Everything that you already made, it is good, but you can try to check the Task Manager and all running processes. It is possible that some processes running in the background, slow performance of the unit as an anti-virus program.

    I had the same situation my Satellite P0.

  • Safari is very slow after downloading the latest IOS on my MacBook Pro

    Safari is extremely slow after downloading the latest IOS on my MacBook Pro. Can we do anything?

    It was very fast.

    IOS is not running on a MacBook Pro. Do you mean that you went to El Capitan?

    When Safari is running slowly? When? What sites? Force Quit Safari and then start it again while holding down the SHIFT key. If Safari works as expected, then remove your installed Safari extensions. Restart Safari normally and add your extensions one by one until the slow back. You have now identified the extension at the root of the problem.

  • Equium A100-338 has started to go very slow after using the recovery CD

    I used the recovery CD after my Equium A100-338 has started to go very slow, it still seems slower than it used to be.
    I haven't added anything to the computer from the CD recovery and verified the Manager tasks to see if I could spot anything suspicious.

    Statistics say, use 18-22% CPU, but the physical memory is about 68% is this normal or should it be less?

    Is there a list of standard processes I can check against mine to see if its doing something, it shouldn't be?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think you feel that unity is a bit slow due to the high amount of different processes that run in the context of the BONE.

    The fact is that your laptop supports various features such as buttons FN, Toshiba control buttons, etc.
    All this has needs drivers.

    In addition, as I m not wrong the Norton Internet Security has been installed on your system.
    It s part of the image of Toshiba and this tool could affect the performance of the system.

    I have used in the past, but now changed to another application that doesn t need a lot of material resources.

    So if you want you can disable or delete some of the tools and utilities that are not important to you and could clean the system using a 3rd third party tool called CCleaner

    Hello

    My wi - fi connection slows down when the charger is not plugged in. Correct the wireless lan drivers. So far, I appreciate all kinds of advice for this problem.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello @JohannNewma,

    Welcome to the HP support community! I read your post and wanted to tender hand can help you!

    I understand that you notice a decrease in speed wireless on the x 360-15-w100nt laptop computer ENVY when running off the battery voltage.

    You can check and adjust the power options on the system as it is probably trying to save battery power by reducing wireless performance.

    If you're still having problems, you can follow the steps described in this document to troubleshoot the network settings and internet wireless.

    Please get back to me how that happens. To show that you like, or are grateful for my post, please click the Thumbs up below.

  • Slow response of the DAQ

    My DAQ system includes measuring RTD temperature via a NI9219 module.  The usual analog to (NI9201), analog out (NI9264), digital in, digital out (NI9401) work fine and run properly with a single software timed while loop 20 Ms per iteration.  When I add entries temperature that the loop slows down at the rate of 2 Hz of the NI9219 - fine for measures of temperature but too slow for the user interface and the rest of the system.  How can I keep the loop running and don't update the temperature data when the NI9219 ends?

    Thanks to each of you for your help.  Lynn, your answer got me on the right track, but I don't need the design / the response of consumers.  What I needed, it is three while loops.  One for slow sensors (NI9219), one for user interface and fast sensors and a third in both.  Now LabVIEW begins the slow acquission, and then allows you to run the fastest acquission.  I have a lot of cleaning up to do, but that's the easy part.

    Once again, thank you to you two.
