QUOTE(farisiylia @ Dec 13 2010, 05:14 PM) Guys i've received my xps 15, and is quite impressed with it. the nice aluminium brush finishing really looks great. but after i installed gta iv, the fan somehow revs up to a noticeable loudness. plus i can feel warm air blasting on the left side. and the left side palm rest is quite warm if no air coming out frm the left vent while gaming, u shud be worried bout it |

QUOTE(Alpha Wolf @ Dec 15 2010, 06:32 AM) 1st thing I removed was mcafee too! maybe is the USB power charge mode...(dono wat it is called) but it functions like even u turn off ur computer but ur esata/USB2 will still running if u havent switch off the power adapter...Added on December 15, 2010, 7:41 amHey guys, I wonder if any of you are experiencing this. I leave my mouse connected via the USB 2/eSata port. Most of the time when I start my laptop, I need to unplug and replug my mouse to get it detected. Some occasions I don't have to. I have not tired connecting it to either of the other two USB 3 ports since they are located further away. I wonder if this has something to do with some power saving settings. i plug my mouse into USB3.0 port thr and it runs well...=) and i put cooler on esata/USB2 port thr if u dun wan it try change the usb setting at BIOS thr.. |
