Hi

Im using T495s model and it has mode switcher function(Fn+Q) that can switch between Performance mode and Silence Mode.
The problem is "It random popup the mode by itself and sometime the mode icon doesn't show in system tray ". If Im using Performance mode it will random popup the performance mode Icon.

When I play a game with fullscreen and the System Mode popup. It decrease my game performance.The Game framerate drop from 30 to 24 and has cracked sound output. I have to restart the laptop to get 30fps back.

So are there a way to prevent this?. Or How can I remove the mode switcher function?

You might be able to find some settings in Vantage to disable the keyboard shortcut. It's probably related to the power management driver as well; it may be worth checking to be sure there aren't any updates which could cure the issue. A more drastic approach may be to uninstall Vantage and/or the power management drivers.
