Acer Nitro An515-45 Random delays

vlado22

Whether I play games or I use Google appears to be random delays.

I think this is a problem with AMD processor with ensuring FTPM, yet there has not been repaired in the form of BIOS to repair FTPM.

What are temperatures of CPU and GPU when random delays happen?

Normally as always.

We need to determine whether it is a hardware or software issue...

Here are some of the steps to improve the performance of your computer.  

Try windows + r - on the run window - type msconfig - click ok  

click on services

check - hide all microsoft services 

click on disable all

click on startup 

disable all the startup items 

click on apply - ok - restart the computer.   Loading process will be very fast now..

Note: You can always enable the services and startup items later or set it to normal startup from selective startup later on the General tab  

Try windows + r - on the run window - type appwiz.cpl - click ok  

it will show you the list of programs

remove all the unwanted third party programs. 

Please don’t remove any drivers.  

If you are not sure , please don’t remove it.  

Try windows + r - on the run window type temp - click ok - it will show you the bunch of files - try ctrl + a - select all files - press the shift key and click on delete files 

Try windows + r - on the run window type %temp% - click ok - It will show you the bunch of files - try ctrl + a - select all files - press the shift key and click on delete files 

If you are not able to remove some files - click on skip and then click click on continue.. 

Try windows + r - on the run window - type cleanmgr - click ok

click on all the boxes except recycle bin and thumnail

Delete the items which are checked 

Try windows x - on the menu - chose command prompt admin or power shell admin 

click on yes 

on the blue or black window type sfc /scannow 

It will be running till 100 %

Try to do a chrome reset 

open chrome

click on three dots on top right corner 

click on settings

Scroll down - go to advanced

click on restore setting to default

you will see reset settings - cancel

click on reset settings 

Open chrome 

it will work faster now

Kindly check how the computer is working now..

If it is still not working then we have to do a refresh and reset

click on start - settings - update and security - recovery - reset this pc - get started 

or 

on start - type here to search - type reset this pc - click on reset this pc on the top - click on get started 

It will show you keep my files and remove everything

chose keep my files 

chose the account - type the password - click on local reinstall - click on reset 

It will be in progress.. 

login to computer and start using the computer. 

If it is still not working 

click on start - settings - update and security - recovery - reset this pc - get started 

chose remove everything 

click on local reinstall - just remove my files - click on reset

It will be in progress

Note:

If you do refresh ( keep my files ) - all your personal files like pictures, music , documents , videos will still be intact.  Only the applications will be lost

If you do reset ( remove everything ) - you are doing a factory default.  It will become like a day one computer.  It will wipe out everything and take your computer to day one like a new computer. 

You can also do the recovery in an alternative way..

There are two alt keys on the keyboard. If you look at the bottom row of keyboard you can see the one on the left side of space bar and the other on the right side of space bar. The alt key on the right side will be looking like alt, alt gr or alt car. Turn off the computer. Hold the alt key on the left and tap f10 continuously.  It will go to repair mode. It will show you chose an option, continue, troubleshoot.  If it is not going to repair mode, turn off the computer. Turn on the computer. Hold the right alt key ( alt gr or alt car or alt ) and then tap f10 continuously. It will go to chose an option continue and troubleshoot..

It will show you chose an option, continue, troubleshoot

Go to troubleshoot - click on reset this pc

click on keep my files ( only applications will be lost )  chose your account and type your password  - click on local reinstall - click on reset

It will be in progress 

If the keep my files option is not working 

Go to troubleshoot - click on reset this pc – click on remove everything – click on local reinstall – just remove my files – click on reset 

It will reinstall windows. 

If the just remove my files is not working.. 

Go to troubleshoot - click on reset this pc – click on remove everything – click on local reinstall – Fully clean the drive – click on reset 

It will reinstall windows. 

Note: You can also go to chose an option , continue , troubleshoot by holding the alt key + tapping f10 or alt gr + tapping f10 on the keyboard while turning on the computer.  Once you see the troubleshoot option, you can stop tapping the f10 and stop holding the alt key.  Then you can try the keep my files and remove everything ( just remove by files and fully clean the drive ) by following the steps which was mentioned above. 

It should work fine after reinstalling the windows.

>>>Normally as always.>>>

1. What do you consider normal temperatures?
2. Did these delays start happening recently for no apparent reason?
3. Or have they always happened since acquiring the machine with the original factory installed operating system?

vlado22

It came to this from the appreciation of the machine for no obvious reason with pre -insulated Windows 11. I have a machine from 14.5 2022

OK. I would try a full erase everything ALT+F10 cold boot factory reset disconnected from the internet. After the factory reset, I would make sure System Protection is turned on in Control Panel 'restore point' app. Then re-connect to the internet. Test for random delays again. If random delays still happen after resetting, then I would arrange for warranty repair service.

And isn't it a problem with AMD FTPM?

JackE

No, I don't think so. Might be an internet rumor. It's virtually identical to the Intel version.

Do you have any non-Micr o soft 3rd party malware scanners running?

Is the power plan also set to high performance? About tpm, I've seen some similar problems in the Portuguese community. I would try to disable tpm in the bios and also check the bios version.
