Maple Slow on Laptop..?

I've had several problems with my Maple installation on my Dell labtop with Xp Pro, sp2, 2GHz Dual core, and 1024 ram. When the AC-adapter is plugged in it works like a charm, but when it only runs on battery, it will not operate to its best! It slows down, and chokes on all operations. I have problems while scrolling down on the page, and everytime any item is selected. I have tried several things in the option menu, but none seem to work.. Maybe the wrong combination. The battery setting of my computer is working at optimal. I have tried with setting it to full speed and all the settings on the full scale.. Still no good. I have the latest Java installed.. And I have furthermore tried to increase the allowed memoryusage of Java to the full scale. I should notice that i have also tried several other combinations of this setting. All from 300 MB to the 1000 MB ram. Many of my fellow students have the same problem, and even one of my teachers is experiencing this too. So therefore it must be a know problem to Maplesoft... ? Or am I completely wrong? Please help me... I enjoy using Maple and all of its functions. Just for the record... I am using Maple 10.06, also with only 10.05, same problem.
