If my battery laptop is dead will my notebook/internet run slower?

Question

My laptop battery is dead. It seems that the computer/ internet is running slower since it died. And I just upgraded the speed. Is it possible for the dead battery to be the cause, because it is only working off the adapter. What's the likelihood?

Answer 1

Yes.

When you take the battery out and maybe restart the laptop. The laptop will go faster.

Answer 2

There are so many things that can cause the Internet on you computer to run slower. You can always take the battery out and run it off the adapter. I would be surprised if it made a dif. on the net though. The energy settings may be such that the cpu will run slower if the battery is dead. Sometimes the energy settings on laptops will slow the processor by 50%.

Answer 3

I don't see how a dead battery can slow you down if you are working off the adapter. Maybe you should check other things:

1. Set wallpaper and screensavers to blank or none — they run continuously in the background and use memory.
2. Review your start menu – remove anything you don’t need on a daily basis — load games, etc. on an as-needed basis.
3. From Internet Explorer, Tools, Internet Options: delete cookies, delete files (offline), and clear history. (You can also set days to store history to 0.)
----- These actions will clear your computer’s cache. (For a description of cache, go to http://help.yahoo.com/l/ph/yahoo/mail/access/access-27210.html )
4. Run Disk Cleanup, Scandisk, Defrag at least every two weeks (the more frequently they are run, the less time they take).
5. Periodically, click Start, Programs, Run — they type ipconfig renew
(that’s ipconfig space renew).

These things should increase speed and free up memory as much as possible.

Answer 4

the potential settings are what's inflicting your computing device to run slower than standard. Your computing device is a cutting-edge era computing device that has switchable photographs stated as Nvidia Optimus. It adjustments between the GT540m GPU and the Intel GMA photographs adapter mutually as on distinctive potential profiles. For extra appropriate overall performance, use discrete Nvidia photographs, and for battery life, use integrated photographs. you may replace it fairly is behaviour by fooling around with the nvidia settings besides via fact the Acer potential administration approaches.

Answer 5

It should not affect the speed of your Internet connection. Just take the battery out and then try it, the lap top will work plugged in with out battery installed.
Hope this helps

Answer 6

It shouldn't have any effect. Try removing the battery completely to see if that makes a difference. Maybe the battery charger is stealing too much power from the cpu.
