Can't this netbook with HD400 at least be usable as smoothly in normal Windows / browsing conditions? I have another i5 notebook with HD4000 which is smooth to use. Visual settings and transparency, everything is off, besides ClearType (tried that as turned off as well). Basically, as if the video card power isn't enough to render the GUI normally. Also it is sort of slow motion when the mouse hovers on icons and needs to show highlighted colors of the icons. Can it actually fix the UI scrolling issues, for example, in Start menu or Explorer? It stutters when I scroll really fast. The shutup10 tool has many privacy settings recommended for disabling. Please help, I really don't know what else I can do, but, you guys may know!Īttached ThrottleStop and GPUZ Screenshots. Let me know if you need GPU or Mobo BIOS files. Maybe #2 You guys know what to do with RWeverything or any other hard tools in order to unlock this GPU? I couldn't understand how to use this tool. Maybe it is locked accidently by the Devs of Acer? Why shouldn't this GPU reach higher speeds in order to make Windows 10 UI at least smoother to use in this underpowered machine? Also, it doesn't open GPU menu in ThrottleStop and Limits button is also greyed out.ħ.) PP0 Current Limit set to bigger number than 0 - No effect on GPU or CPU.Ĩ.) Ticked Disable Chipset Throttle in ThrottleStop - No effect.ĩ.) Tried disabling IntelPPM via registry and got constant 100% CPU but no effect on GPU, so reverted back to Start Value 3.

The CPU performance works great and delivers turbo boost frequencies under load without falling back to base frequency!Ĥ.) High performance and Ultimate performance power plans - Intel GPU is set at Max performance here as well.ĥ.) Max performance setting in Intel Graphics Control Panel.Ħ.) IGPU=32 or any other big number in ThrottleStop.INI - No difference. I can undervolt and change multipliers of the CPU. Only enable / disable webcam, sound, security stuff, boot stuff, etc.ģ) Deleted and stopped Intel DPTF drivers from running.

DDU was used for clean driver installation.Ģ.) Latest Win 10 21H2 - With latest updates.Ģ.) Latest BIOS - No performance / throttle / power saving settings found in the BIOS settings. Even using lower screen resolutions don't help much with the lag and stuttering.ġ.) Tried various drivers, old and new, OEM and from Intel - Currently installed are the latest from Intel's Website (). The result is very slow Windows 10 UI experience, almost like having a default basic windows drivers installed. I have an Acer TravelMate B117-M which has the GPU mentioned above and no matter what I tried it never boosts, always at 320Mhz.
