slow and sluggish.

[Anonymous]

just received this tablet a week ago. 64 bit. I am wondering why it feels so much slower and sluggish than my HP Stream Mini which runs on 2GB RAM and a slower CPU, it’s also not as smooth as my Teclast X98 Air 3G, which also has an older cpu and half ram. is there some tweaking I need to do? besides that, my biggest complain is the touch screen. often time when I tap the X mark on the upper right corner to close an app, it wouldn’t register. scrolling web pages is sluggish, when my finger touches the screen it often ends up highlighting the text. then there is the wifi, very unstable, disconnecting on its own or becomes extremely slow. I have a cheap Bluetooth mouse, as soon as it’s connected, the wifi died. overall, I am disappointed.

same here, especially with running chrome.

The slowness with running Chrome is a Windows 10 issue and not necessarily a tablet issue. A web search shows that it is not tablet specific. The fix that worked for me:

1. Disable hardware acceleration under Chrome settings.
2. Run the Windows Program compatibility troubleshooter.  Control Panel> System Security submenu: Find and fix problems>Programs: run programs made for previous versions of Windows> Next> Google Chrome>Next. Then test and save settings.

My Chrome browser is now running at a good speed.

Try updating the display driver.

i tried your solution with running the intel graphics driver, but it just gave me an error when i tried to install the actual driver.

Updating the driver will help with other issues, but not the Chrome issue. Use my steps above to solve the Chrome issue. It made my Hi10 much faster in Chrome.  If you still want to update the display driver, try downloading the suggested driver directly instead of using the utility. You can also try updating via windows updates.  Here are other methods:

You can also try running the compatibility troubleshooter for the Intel Driver Update Utility. Do step 2 in my post above, but select the Intel Utility instead of Chrome.

Please let me know if any of the above methods work to update the display driver and if doing so helps performance so that I can update my solutions post.
