*5 Windows XP: standby
LAN transmission speed slows down
noticeably.
Poor performance during data trans-
mission via a PC Card (e.g., distorted
video image when writing to a DV
camera using an IEEE1394 PC Card).
<Only for model with wireless LAN>
Wireless LAN connection is cut.
Try the following settings.
Click (Start) - [Control Panel] - [System and Security] - [Power Options], and
select [High performance], then close the window.
These problems may occur due to performance loss that resu lts from the CPU
power-saving function. Log on to Windows as an administrator and follow the
steps below.
AClick [start] - [Run] and input [c:\util\cpupower\setup.exe], and click [OK].
Follow the on-screen instructions.
BClick [start] - [All Programs] - [Panasonic] - [CPU Idle Setting].
CClick [Performance] and click [OK], then click [Yes].
The computer will restart.
If the problem persists, click [start] - [Control Panel] - [Performance and
Maintenance] - [Power Options] - [Power Schemes], select [Always On]
in [Power schemes], and click [OK].
The above remedy is effective for performance loss resultin g from the CPU
power saving function, but not for other causes (e.g., n oise generated by high
CPU load such as video playback).
The above remedy slightly reduces the battery operation ti me. Normally it is
recommended to select [Battery (Windows XP Standard)] in [CPU Idle
Setting] and to select [Portable/Laptop] in [Power schemes].
