hi i got a netbook that runs windows 7 starter is there a way to make games faster or somthing cause when i play games it has tons of lag and how do you get that off
@E34BMW535i I tested a Vaio P (the newer models: 2010) and first it had aero turned off. But if you turn aero on, it has aero, too. Looked smooth for me. :)
I have the 2ghz, 2GB ram with a 128SSD version Vaio P with Win7.
I recommend changing the power plan to high performance.. activate GOD mode and get rid of most of the graphic extras and also change the screen refresh rate to 40hz. Also use google chrome for browsing.
Well I don't technically know how a computer works. But as far as I know.. 60hz = 60 times a second the computer has to generate the pixels on the screen... so by cutting it to 40 hz I'd assume it reduces the load by a third.
If you go through my post you will see I'm talking about increasing the performance of the Vaio P. In this case performance is not measured by smoothness. I know about refresh rates of screens. I'm talking about how much work the computer's integrated graphics chip has to do. When I said, "I dont know what is technically going on" I was referring to whether or not the computer does less work when the screen is set to 40hz and not the more demanding 60hz.

@TimeSplittersChimp netbooks, especially one like this with a less powerful processor cannot play HD video from youtube unless you download it first. it can't play mkv files either. i have a samsung nc10 netbook and it does surprisingly well with your average avi file. this thing is way over priced though for a smaller screen, less battery life etc.
i have a viao core 2 duo, the thing just dont want to install anything, printer, video capture all fail, even try to recover shitty vista from recovery disk i burn, wtf just downgrade to xp and its lightning fast. i guess it wasnot designed for xp though. good luck with that midget laptop u haave there.
Thank you a lot for this video. I currently have Windows 7 Home Premium at the moment and I was thinking to upgrade to Ultimate... there I need a external usb dvd drive... which models was yours? And which ones do you recommend?
i would suggest using proffesional if you need the features, but i have the windows 7 ultimate on my acer aspire one and it does not lag at all. it runs perfect.
I ought to choose clean install or upgreat from vista to 7. So if I choose upgreat all software and driver is also still in my vaio p or not? And if I choose upgreat is long time install more than clean install right? Then I choose clean install partition recovery vista lost right? And the other way if I choose upgreat partition recovery vista r still right?
Yes, a clean install wipes out the software that comes with the computer. It does leave the recovery partition intact unless you reformat/partition the drive.
Hey whats the diff from the motion eye camera on this laptop versus say a built in webcam in another laptop...does the motion eye one follow your movement?!?
I don't want a netbook but if these were about $350 maybe $375 at the most I would buy one. I don't see what makes this anymore expensive than other netbooks.
IMO it's worth going with Windows 7 RC now for the Vaio P. It totally transforms the machine, speedy, everything works. Best installed fresh, so no pre-bundled crapware will interferer with it.
My question for you is, how well does the unit under Windows 7 handle full screen HD video (either online streaming from youtube, bbc player, cbs online episode player, etc as well as apple quicktime .mov HD downloadable trailers)?
Everything that you did on the unit seemed to be very responsive. Have you noticed any issues with any other aspects of the unit since the upgrade to Windows 7?
I am considering the purchase of the Sony Vaio P. System speed is an enormous concern of mine especially after watching all of the user videos. Apparently I will need to either upgrade to Windows 7 Beta or downgrade to Windows XP (both of which I have).
I saw a video of Vaio P trying to run YouTube HD but it couldn't. Also if you get Windows 7 (Home Premium or above) You can download Windows XP from MS to run within Windows 7. =D
i have an acer aspire one if it is little and some times dificult to see what im doing think what will happend with the vaio p!!! it will be unconfortable

@Kenjineering no 60hz is how many times the screen refreshes per second i think... so the more hz it has the faster it refreshes and is smoother..
