ZANE WANG Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I have installed the Jas 10.4.8 on 3 laptops (IBM, ASUS, ACER), and all these 3 machines runs very slow when booting without AC adapter. If i change the bios setting of CPU speed, it runs fast, but the battery time become much more shorter (if choose automatic speed mode, it still runs slow) Do there have any method to let CPU just run fast when loading is heavy, and run slow when loading is light ? I tried to search the fourm, find some discussion about this but do not find the solution. Do anybody know how to solve this problem ? thx.

tda Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 HELP I have the same problem... the difference is that i cannot set my cpu power consumption from the bios... so I have my osx usable only when i have AC adapter plugged in.It seems that it's able to recognise the correct freq. at system loading and then it cannot change it anymore. If I turn on the notebook with the power plugged and after the boot I unplug the cable, the system frequancy remains freezed at the maximum and so I can use it normally... My notebook is an ASUS A6Km / Turion64. Is there a way to disable the throttling of the CPU? It doesn't matter if i have to lost battery indicator.

helios Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 The new speedstep kernel together with the new ACPI kext might fix this for you all. My IBM T43 can throttle down to 1033MHz and up to 1600MHz when running the speedstep kernel, kext and the buggy Throttle2beta2 application. But without the app it wont throttle. Look at hackint0sh forum for more info Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49261-help-laptop-runs-slow-when-boot-in-battery/#findComment-353595 Share on other sites More sharing options...
