HEM makes pokerstars lag.

[green_29]

I used to be able to play 24 tables + hem on my laptop/external display with no problems so I know its not my laptop (especially since its just been restored). Ive installed my monitor drivers so I dont think its a graphic issue.

But yeah every time I run pokerstars + 24 tables and put hem on auto import pokerstars lags by about half a second making it impossible for me to play. When I close hem it works perfectly.

Have you done something to the software which requires more memory or something because this never used to happen?

help

maybe it has something to do with the hud being bigger than it used to be, is there anyway to make it smaller like in poker tracker 3? I prefer it like that any way.

I really need this sorting. I have to play 24 tables with a hud and I know my laptop is powerful enough to do that.

Some suggestions (more detail & in the links at the bottom)

You've restored your laptop so I guess some of your windows settings may have changed for a start
On laptops the HDD's are set for energy efficiency so make sure the Power Options are set to HIGH PERFORMANCE
Check with the windows update service that your OS is absolutely up-to-date
Check your permissions settings & also firewall exceptions
Optimize Windows for "best performance" (in Control Panel/System/Advanced/Performance/Setting/Visual Effects)
Sometimes Anti-virus programs scan all the folders in a file, so it's advisable to set exceptions for all the auto import folders, Holdem Manager and PostgreSQL folders.
Vacuum your database
Update your Video Card Drivers
Set the HUD Opacity to Maximum
Don't use HUD Multiple panels
