Yoga 11 t off in some 3d games, but only on the battery!

I got my 11 s Yoga for less than a week, and I love it, except for a strange problem. When I am running some 3D games (only when the battery), the computer turns off suddenly without warning. If I'm hip, so this seems not to happen. I am able to run 3DMark all the way through without accident and the edge of the mirror and Awesomenauts work fine. However, some games such as Trine 2 and Microsoft Mahjong 3d causes this failure occurs.

So far I've tried: update the graphics driver to the latest version (from Intel), update (from the Lenovo site) chipset driver, update driver Intel Rapid Storage Technology (extract from the Lenovo site). I've also updated the Lenovo energy management driver. I tried tweaking the various parameters of the plan power as well, but I'm stumped. Sounds like an overheating issue, but why only some games and only if a battery?
I'd like pointers to solve this. I love this laptop if not, up to now.

* update * the same thing happens with Dead Space 3. Set of graphics at the lowest, and vsync is turned on. Laptop turns off with zero warning on the battery. Seems to work fine when it is plugged. Are the fans not used to their full potential when the laptop is on battery? Anyone with ideas?

I think I solved the problem. After additional observation, it seemed that the fan was never get activated at full speed on battery, as it was when it is plugged. Logically, this would lead to overheating. I downloaded the latest driver for the "Intel Platform and thermal dynamic framework ' of the site Web of Lenovo, which seems to have solved the problem! I seem to be able to run Dead Space 3, Microsoft Mahjong and Trine 2 battery all the time. I will test more extensively and post a confirmation later.

I hope this might help someone else, if someone runs into the same problem.

On the driver for the 11s Yoga download page, look for "Intel DPTF Driver".

  • Qosmio X 500 stop during the game - but only on the external power supply!

    Hello.

    Since I updated my BIOS to 2.9 I had this HUGE problem. And now, I created a user here, in the hope of my colleagues advice owners of Toshiba.

    Let me cut it, as it's enough for me confused.

    I bought the computer in March 2010 - is still under warranty.
    I updated the BIOS from 2.8 to 2.9. I always kept my computer up to date with the latest drivers Toshiba - and is still.
    But now, after update BIOS, all of a sudden, my computer shuts down, rotates instantly, as if someone pulled the cord and there is no battery attached.
    But it happens that whenever I start a GPU really requiring program/application. It is not happed when I use the computer for all the days of the things or watch movies etc.

    I put it well 3DVantage and of course, it crashed.

    BUT!

    If I pull the rope and let it run on battery - even if the performance that comes out is less - it does not crash, never, in any game that would break if I had the string attached.

    I was in touch with Toshiba service in Scandinavia - I live here and they couldn't tell me what was the problem, but they were pretty sure that it was not related to the BIOS, because while I was talking to them, I installed 2.8, and it's the same thing.

    It has been sprayed, treated and some more with compressed air, and if there is no dust left, it would be like concrete. I ran the game in windowed mode, while having Speedfan running, the temperature will never be greater than 65 degrees Celsius. So it isn't heat related.
    I used 3DVantage to test the CPU and see if that too would break, once again nothing.

    I think the long terms of workload. The GPU goes off when the workload exceeds a certain percentage/voltage/whatever and something in the BIOS which controls it, changed or left unchanged and there for is not skilled with the rest of the updates to the BIOS.
    Or maybe the problem is not BIOS related? is it something else? I'm really confused and the fact that I can use it for simple tasks, only confuses me even more - so this is only a part of the graphics card which is damaged?

    Even if it is under warranty, wait 10 days (if I'm really, really lucky, like place I bought it, is not exactly known for good service condition) is the last option.

    This explanation is rather long, but I'm not not short versions, and if you feel like I left something, say so, and I'll do my best to provide you with information.

    Thanks in advance!
    Nikolaj.

    > Speedfan shows also a tab called Temp1 - ACPI... It may be offtopic, but what is?
    When I order the windows event log, it shows some errors about ACPI: (translated by myself from Danish)

    Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) specification is an open standard and defines independent interfaces for hardware discovery, configuration, power management and monitoring.

    66 temperature is not too high so I n t think that automatic shutdown of the bottom are related to temperature.

    I have your case, I recommend reinstalling the OS window once more; install the operating system preinstalled Toshiba using the recovery disk.
    Then check the features of the laptop. I mean that you should not install any other software before checking the laptop. In many cases 3rd party software could lead to problems of different laptop then you should check the laptop using factory settings.

    I know that I should play high graphic games on my E430 edge on power without battery (not attached) cables in order to maintain its life expectancy.

    But, in my region, the power source is unpredictable and can go off at any time, which can do harm to the BIOS of the laptop if it shuts down suddenly.

    My question is,

    Is it possible to use Power Manager for giving me the opportunity to play games for hours while battery without hurting it? Power plans? ... Settings? ... etc.

    something will help you.

    Generally, the game settings supports certain options that should allow you to stretch the display mode.

    You need to look something like: mode full-screen.
    Also try to set the display on a lower resolution.
    After you have reset the screen resolution in Windows, set the game to use the same resolution that is currently used in Windows.

  • Why some entries visible history ONLY through the historical search option?

    When I select the history-all entries because yesterday (10/04/13), I see only one list. While I'm still in the mode of yesterday (10/04/13) and history of the research of Gamestop, I get a separate list. However, the information on the list of Gamestop does not appear on the see the whole list of yesterday's story. Why?

    Unrelated to the above, is it possible to determine the time of a Web site has been visited?

    Another possible explanation for previous entries is no longer appearing: history shows only your most recent visit to a specific URL. If you re - visit a site, the entry is moved to the date / time of the last visit (and the visit count is incremented). Data on previous visits are still stored in the database, and there are ways to extract this information if necessary.

  • Satellite P30 seems to completely charge the battery only when the unit is turned off completely

    Hi, I have my Toshiba Satellite p30 and only works on battery. This unit operate on sector or only on the battery as after the period of time go down the warning, then closes. The orange light fades in and out, but seems that it will only fully charge when the unit is turned off completely.

    I only just received this unit so bit of a novice.

    MASH

    Hello

    normally, the battery should always charge until it is full when the power is connected.
    If you have an orange light flashes, it means that something is wrong. Maybe your battery is faulty or something else. This should be checked by a technician.

  • Pavilion 1214tx G4: screen off in some games (but works well in another game)

    Hi, someone please help my with my computer laptop screen problem?

    But first, here is my hardware profile:

    Laptop model: Clubhouse G4 1214tx

    Brand CPU: Intel (r) Core i5-2430 M @ 2.40 GHz CPU

    Motherboard model: 166th Hewlett-Packard

    Graphics: (switchable)

    Intel HD 3000 (Hardware ID: PCI VEN_8086 & DEV_0116 & SUBSYS_166E103C & REV_09)

    and

    AMD HD 6470 m (Hardware ID: PCI\VEN_1002 & DEV_6760 & SUBSYS_166E103C & REV_00)

    So a few days ago, I detected switchable graphic option (who appear generally when I right clikcing in desktop) did not work and shows an error everytime I try to open it (I forgot this error message it is said) and I think that: "no, piece of cake, I'll just update the driver and everything will be back to normal." (never I was so wrong)

    Then I download the driver for my laptop hereAMD HD graphics driver and Intel graphics driver high definition (HD).

    But mistakes, then happened:

    1. when I installed the Intel driver, this error message appears: "the pilot is not validated for this computer. You can get the correct driver drom the computer manufacturer. The installation program will end. "the installation process, then stopped.

    2. when I install the AMD, this error message appears: "Application install: install package error ' installation continues on the race and finished in all cases. but, the option for switching the graphics is completely absent and catalyst control center is empty... more, there are exclamation point in the windows Device Manager

    After pulling my hair out of frustration for a few days, I then download AMD automatic detection utility from here

    Using automatic detection AMD, I installed a new driver as he suggests.

    It seems that works fine, until I realized that the Device Manager indicates that my devices is AMD Radeon 7000 series instead of the AMD Radeon HD 6470 Mr. AND some games don't work well (life is strange and MW3)

    Games runs without any error message whatsoever, but the game screen goes completely blank (yep, empty, without blinking, obscured or whatever, just empty), although we could hear the its game and music, and even when I click on my mouse randomly, could hear the noise of the option. Do not freeze tho, British Colombia, I could always use Alt - tab to minimize the game and go to the office (all is normal while the game is reduced to the minimum).

    I suspect that I must install the driver of HP instead of AMD, but with that "package error" problems, it looks like that's not a solution.

    Anyone know any solution to this problem? Any help would be appreciated

    Thank you

    Andi

    Finally solved

    -AMD driver somehow did not work well. In my case, it is better to use the official driver of HP

    -To install Driver from HP page without the Application error install: install the package . You must first uninstall the Visual C++ 2010 redistributable "uninstall the program" in the control panel (the driver package will be re - install)

    -Somehow, the FPS drop did not replicate once I upgrade my bios with the latest version (ver. F66 in my case). Maybe you need to match the driver with the bios? I don't know, it just works

    So, I hope that it might help for those who have the same problem.

    May peace be with you all

  • some pogo games won't play

    JAVA

    I already have java in my computer. I tried to reinstall it and it says I have an old file and won't let me.so I tried to uninstall, but it won't let me. I play games on pogo.com and it won't let me play one or two games, but not all? whats up with this, Ive played for years and have not played for about 1 year now im of the problems with java

    It sucks, but POGO and JAVA are not Microsoft products.

    So, when you try to uninstall JRE 6 Update 22 he actually says, "You can't", and this is the error?

    Download the 32-bit version of JRE 6 Update 29 by (Windows 7, XP (32 bit) offline) and save it to your desktop.  Double-click on it to run / install it.  Restart the computer.

    What version of Internet Explorer you have (IE6, IE7 or IE8?)  You need at least v7 (or v8) in order to be able to now use POGO.

    You have Mozilla Firefox installed as well?  If not - you can consider its installation and try to use it (v8 is always the latest version.)

    Although I think that JRE6 update 22 would work in this case.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
