Problems with i7 Laptop and Quest TOAD – Any Advice?

Hi everyone,

I’m encountering several issues when using Quest TOAD on an i7 laptop, particularly with performance and compatibility. During resource-intensive tasks, such as running complex database queries or multitasking with various tools within Quest TOAD, the i7 laptop frequently experiences slowdowns. These interruptions have become a significant challenge to productivity, especially when handling large datasets or multiple sessions at once.

So far, I've tried troubleshooting the issue by updating all relevant drivers, optimizing system settings, and ensuring that Quest TOAD is running the latest version. However, the problems persist, and it's unclear whether the root cause is related to hardware limitations, software conflicts, or system configuration issues.

Has anyone in the community experienced similar problems with Quest TOAD on an i7 laptop? What solutions or steps did you take to resolve the issue? Any advice on how to optimize performance or improve compatibility would be greatly appreciated!

Looking forward to hearing your suggestions!
