Hi,
I have an Samsung NC10 netbook and regulaly use speed mode (Fn F8) when watching videos. However after a recent virus (trojan) which I have now deleted speed mode no longer works. e.g. I press Fn F8 but noting happens.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
I found the answer to my own question!!!
I deleted magic keyboard which is needed for speed manager to work
Here is the link to download if anyone has any problems
Or you could manually do what this program does and set the process priority to ‘High’ in the task manager.
A good tip is to set Magic Keyboard NOT to run at startup; but to run it when you need it, by using a keyboard shortcut.
Create a new shortcut on the desktop (move it later) – make its target the programme that would normally run at start up – properties – shortcut key – change to … Shift + Alt + M … for example.
Then it’s not running in the background all the time. Most of the useful FN shortcuts will work without Magic Keyboard anyway – they’re controlled through Samsung Easy Display Manager.
I’m a bit pedantic when it comes to things running in the background – even if it’s not a massive save on resources.
Used regularly.. fine let it run, but Magic Keyboard? I’ve only ever used it to start ‘speed mode’, even then setting the battery manager to max performance gives roughly the same result.
