Power consumption increases when you run a WPF-based program that runs an animation in Windows Vista

Consider the following scenario:

  • You run a Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)-based program on a Windows Vista-based portable computer.
  • The WPF-based program runs an animation.
  • You are operating the computer on battery power.

In this scenario, the computer’s power consumption unexpectedly increases. Therefore, the computer’s battery power decreases more quickly than expected.

There is a download that resolves this issue. See Hotfixes for details.
