Michael/Brian/Stam - if you want you can add this to downloads...

[louis198920]

I downloaded it from the Dell website few weeks ago, so I assume it is safe to perform the downgrade? =p

[Stevenxowens792]

Safe = yes

can I use this theory to enable my M15X to run on battery whilst gaming ??

[Stevenxowens792]

You can, just remember that the m15x, with the stock battery has about 30 minutes (or less depending on battery age) of full speed gaming. I remember configuring my m15x when i had one (about 1.5 years ago) and thinking, wow... this is hardly enough for a cup of coffee while shooting peeps in BFBC2.

Good Luck, StevenX

Thanks for this; this is especially helpful when one of the cats decides to unplug me in the middle of a game.

Hahaha amazing how fast battlefield 2 can drain my battery. 25 minutes and im done Thanks for the fix though! Works amazing when I unplug my laptop to move it to another location.

when you are on battery the refresh is set to 40Hz, may want to change that as well

Thats weird that would be used on battery i guess to save battery but kind of weird on the displays of today. Most LCDs like internal in laptop dont like lower than 60-59hz.
