[QUOTE="the8ight, post: 870970, member: 109337"] Hi all! I am the owner of MBP 2.4 - 8600m gt - 4gb I was using it for around one year with no problem but and from some time I have noticed a big drop of the performance... On the boot camp I have COD4 which was running smoothly with 80-125fps but now it is barely 30fps with the same configuration... same story with games like TF2 and L4D.. What I have tried after this drop: * format C: and getting fresh system * different graphic drivers * playing with directx settings * checking the power management * reset PRAM, SMC * Apple Hardware Test * playing without battery * tuning fun speed nothing helped...! I was reading that those MBP have problems with bugged GeForce ( * Distorted or scrambled video on the computer screen * No video on the computer screen (or external display) even though the computer is on) but mine MBP is not having any of those... I was also looking online for similar problems and I have found those topic touching same issue with the same model of MBP...: [url]http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1583573&tstart=75[/url] [url]http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1792525[/url] some other topics as well but I cannot find them right now.. the problem is that nobody knows why this strange thing occurs... Please help me? [/QUOTE]
