Honestly I have never heard of DCP before or that tool. What is the point of it?

Re: M17x and DPC Latency
that's high. How many background processes do you have running?

Re: M17x and DPC Latency
This has been a reoccurring issue with many laptops. There is a very long thread here which may be of interest to some... A big factor has been the wifi card. Some people have reported that switching off the unused band coverage has helped... IMO there really is no simple fix.
Another thread on this can be found here.Last edited by BatBoy; 14th August 2009 at 01:45 AM.

Yes I didnt know of this until I started reading here.
I downloaded and mine appears like this one here...
I have BT and wifi off.. I will have to tweak things and see what is causing this.. I should format, and just install basic drivers and go from there... No alienware software ect... maybe even before antivirus ... Just to see when it appears..M17x Black R2
