k_poulin99 Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 My utorrent is working perfectly but when I close the screen of my laptop, the connection drop to nearly 1 ko/s. Then when I open it, it will come back to 250 ko/s.I'm using Vista,utorrent latest version.And yes! I disabled the option concerning energy management like stop hard disk is set to never etc, etc, etc...Do you have any idea?Thanks a lot!!!

Firon Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Closing the laptop usually puts the computer into standby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k_poulin99 Posted May 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Thanks but I'm not a newbie. I disabled everyting link standby, stop hard-drive, etc...I test with a normal download using IE. I close my screen after I started the download and everything works fine. So its occur only using utorrent.The download speed seem to drop when there is no activity on my computer. So I develop a small vb.net application which move the mouse of 1 pixel every 5 secondes and it helps!!! Now when my screen is close, the connection will drop to 5 ko/sec after +-15min.The problem still there and I don't know why.Thanks for your support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 µTorrent doesn't care whether you're using your computer or not. If you're seeing correlations between an idle computer state and speeds, then it's probably a problem with the OS prioritizing things weirdly. Or something.

TheSacredSoul Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Just to be 100% sure, follow this steps in Vista...Windows Orb ( Start button, whatever ) --> Control Panel ---> Mobile PC ---> Change what the Power Buttons Do. Make sure it is set to "Do Nothing" when the lid is closed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k_poulin99 Posted May 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Thanks for the reply. I double check and everything is set to "Do nothing".I will try use a wired connection this weekend instead of wireless.I will let you know the result.
