Guys, using the 6001tx here.
Since a few months back my laptop has been really slow as in REALLY slow.
Boot time everything.
Even surfing LYN on Chrome will be laggy->not responding-> crash.
It was never like this before.
And the fan, is really noisy.
And the heat coming out from the vent is really hot, I put my cup of water beside it, the water turned warm after awhile.
This has never happen before, and when I sleep my laptop, and when I switch it on again, the wireless driver,ati will crash.
Any idea what's wrong with it ?
This laptop cannot die, I have so much uni work in it sad.gif
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks smile.gif

Any particular program eating up your system resources? Open Task Manager and check it.

Chrome is eating the most memory from the task manager but I still don't understand the noise coming out from the vent ?
Should I get an air duster and spray the vents ? sad.gif

What about the CPU utilization?

What noice? Fan spinning noise? Fan grinding something noise? sweat.gif

You can restore if u still have the recovery partition.. backup your important file 1st.

Nope, just really hot air coming out from the vent.
Oh btw, what's the new HP driver and the Ati driver for the laptop ?
I wanna install them, might solve the Ati crashing issue. sweat.gif

Maybe there is some process running that make the cpu hot even when idling. Check Task Manager again?

Anyway, try this method about graphic not responding.. change the value to 5 or 6.

there's this program rlvknlg.exe *32, the description is relevant knowledge.
it's taking up quite some of the memory, like 500,000k at times.
what is this ? doh.gif

Yo bro acid, you play dota 2 right ?
I'm using the driver you recommend from leshcat.
after the ogre patch, my dota 2 starts to lag.
before this i can play on high settings, but now it spikes.
i can confirm it's not the internet connection problem.
now when I alt+tab, to dota 2, at first the screen will be okay, then a few seconds later the screen turns brighter.
did you encounter this problem ?
it's really bad, it lags the whole game. sad.gif
i off the v-sync but everything else is still high.
any help ?

Will try playing few games tonite. I play with max setting except water quality at low i think. I'm still getting 60fps most of the time when watching live game but i noticed GPU usage is higher than normal.
*
I read the d2 forum, most of them ask me to upgrade to the latest leshcat driver which is "Catalyst 12.3 UP2 UnifL for Hybrid Graphics".
So I upgraded, but the "screen flickering" thing still occurs when I alt+tab. sweat.gif
It's annoying because when I alt tab back into d2, the brightness is just nice, then like 2 secs later, it becomes slightly brighter.
Not sure how to describe it, but it's something like that sad.gif

Hey Acid, so how ?

What startup program u have?
Forgot to report.  doh.gif

No.. mine behave normally except my GPU usage went up from 70%-80% to 80%-90% with HD6770M clocked@865/1001. All settings max except Water Quality.
Smooth game all the times except a few dips into 40-ish when team fight + kunkka release this torrent and ulti. sweat.gif

lol rofl laugh.gif
okay, is there any other driver's that I can try ?
other than the leshcat's.
the bright screen thing is very annoying.
not sure how to explain, and how to solve it either.
when I alt+tab back into dota 2, the screen's brightness is just nice everything.
then like 1-2 seconds later, it turns slightly brighter. shakehead.gif
i don't even know what happened, not that I touched any settings sweat.gif cry.gif

oh.. i have brightness problem with Dota 2 also but mine went darker after few secs alt+tabbing. laugh.gif

okayyy sweat.gif
my friend also had this problem but he's on nvdia instead of ati.
he said there's something to do with the brightness settings but I'm not sure how to set that because it was fine all the while sweat.gif
oh btw, is the 12.3 leshcat safe to use with our 6770 ?

Wont it lower your FPS? I think the problem is within dota itself.. i used 12.2 for a long time but only now i get that brightness problem. hmm.gif

With 12.3 your AMD GPU clock will stucked@725/800. It won't drop even when idle. If that doesn't bothers you then u can stay with 12.3. smile.gif
*
srsly lower FPS ? sad.gif
do you know the console for dota 2 to see the FPS ?
I'll test it out later. And will prolly reinstall back to 12.2 sweat.gif
