Precision M4400 Owner's Lounge *Part 2*

Okay thats true but i get this message.

 

Hello. I use Win7 64-bit, ForceWare 197.28 (because only this driver supports all techs and normal scaling) and BIOS A02 (I have downgraded a few days ago. It shows a little bit wrong temp but works much faster and reliable than A22). Now I have only 4GB of Corsair Gaming memory. No problems with PS CS5. It works very fast.

May be you should check your memory first and then try to check dpc latency.

I found that cardreader driver on my system was not correct. But I guess you should check your system by yourself.

 

Is anyone here who has a WUXGA screen interested in selling their M4400, by chance?

 

does anyone know a reliable way to check battery wear on the M4400?

cheers

 

The only way I know is using Hardware Monitor. It has a line item for that particular information... see below:

 

thanks! i dint realise the new version of hwmonitor had that, i was using an old version.

ok mine says 20% wear, and 125% charge :S what does 125% charge mean??

 

Lol...means it's still calculating the actual batterylife. Try letting the battery run out once, it'll give the right percentages after that.

 

so does that mean the wear level indicated is inaccurate as well (i hope so lol) these damn batteries are expensive! 78 pounds for an original one on ebay :|

 

The calculation is probably based on the theoretical specs of the battery.

Maximum attainable voltage vs. actual voltage when the charging system reaches steady state.

Take it for what it's worth...

 

The wear will probably be a bit more accurate already as it can read the orig. capacity and 'till how far it can be charged now. Just let it run empty and your wear might go down to. Just let windows running 'till it close itself.
