• [Newbie TP] Windows vs Lenovo System Update update + Win vs Lenovo Power Management

  @All: I'm going to a new T420s in a few days and since I've never owned a TP, I have a few questions for more experienced users. I apologize in advance if the questions seem stupid, but I wonder if Win Update and the Lenovo system update can get in the other way and messes things in the system by overwriting the drivers, or they have nothing to do with the other? Furthermore, what about the power management settings? I heard that Lenovo is rich enough, so I was wondering if they can enter in conflict with the settings of Windows7 and in case those who I would prefer and how to work around others?

  Thanks a zillion.

  My rule of thumb is to:
  (1) anything in the update system that is not a Windows update hotfix package.
  (2) updated using Windows Update for Windows and associated fixes (disable the driver updated unless you know what you're doing).
  (3) run System Update and install the update packages Windows remains, if necessary.

• Lenovo Power Management Driver for Windows 8

  If you can visit the following url link:

  http://support.Lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?docid=DS014939
  you will get a page titled:

  Lenovo Power Management driver for Windows 7 (32 bit, 64 bit), Vista (32 bit, 64 bit), XP (32-bit, 64-bit) - for laptop which contains the driver links and documentation of the 1.65.05.21 of the software version, but the current version is 1.66.0.22, released on December 29, 2012, through ThinkVantage Update Retriever and ThinkVantage System Update.

  I used the option to return to the site, and last week I was informed by the team of Lenovo Web content that driver Lenovo Power Management for Windows 8 (32 bit, 64 bit), Windows 7 (32 bit, 64 bit), Vista (32 bit, 64 bit), XP - laptop version 1.66.0.22 has been released earlier to the update system and Retriever and it will be posted on the support site today. I was advised to visit the following url link:

  This new document now shows a revised January 18, 2013 release date. Please note that it is a different URL from the previous version of the software. The two documents currently coexist.

  If all goes well, it will be the subject of appropriate documentation and cross referenced on the Support site some time in the coming months.

  The Lenovo Web content team has properly documented and cross referenced the two versions of the driver. Play well.

• Installation of the Lenovo power management

  I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to install Lenovo Power Management that comes with the U400. I was on the phone with tech support and they advised me to uninstall this software to solve another problem I had. Does not, the problem still exists, but I lost out on the power management software. Is anyone know where / if I can find this software? I've looked everywhere for it.

  Thank you

  Thanks for the reply Zehnstein, I thought. I had checked, but apparently not.

• Sleeps, even if configured for power management settings do not

  HI -.

  New installation of Win 8.

  Before that the drivers have been installed, I could leave my laptop on it overnight, and he stayed.

  Then I installed the power management driver, that produced a framework for "put the computer to sleep. I then put this on "Never" for the section of 'sector '. Whenever I leave the machine on the night... I wake up to it off, not only one headlight on all over her.

  Is there a thing if I want to leave this thing on?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  I think that I understand the question. I pass the advanced power settings, scroll down and expand your sleep, then hibernate after. Choose one of the numbers and reduce the number as if you would go to 0, which actually appear as 'never '.

• Wireless Internet takes awhile to connect after the sleep or Hibernate? Already changed the wireless power management settings

  Hello

  I have a Dell XPS 17. I bought last week.

  My internet config:

  Intel Centrino Wireless adapter N 1030.

  I already changed the settings disable the wireless adapter power management "allow this computer to turn this device to save power". After looking at other threads I also did this for USB ports. Drivers have been updated to the last pilot intel: 14.3.0.0

  Whenever I put my PC in sleep or hibernation from the recovery, it does not automatically connect to the internet, and when I select the wireless network, it takes a long time to connect, at least 2-3 minutes. Normally, it displays ' windows takes long time to connect.

  The network is selected to connect automatically, but it isn't after the mode 'sleep'.

  Everything works fine when I stopped and power on as usual. Just not in "standby mode"!

  Hi PMDAY2013,

  Follow these methods.

  Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

  Disable the anti-virus software

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2: Perform a clean boot to see if there is a conflict of software like the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow the link step 7 to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

  Method 3: Follow the steps in the article.

• Satellite A210-17R: power management automatically changes to the default settings

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A210-17R with Win XP SP2. Works pretty well, except for the power management settings (they might call energy Mgmt., I don't know, cause Im using a German language version, so all the terms I use are translated from German).

  I am connected with my user name with administrator rights, then this isn't the common thing, where you cannot change the power mgmt based on your user status. I can actually change any settings (when disable hard drive and screen and so on, knowing what to do when the lid is closed), but somehow she maintains herself reset default settings. I tried to remove all the profiles of power except one, but still... keeps resetting. Ive tried to save the changes, eteinde, save the settings and the mashine completely but anyway even if not instantly (and I did not understand a pattern yet) it maintains the default reset.

  Its very annoying cause, I would leave on my laptop at night to download stuff, but I want to close the lid during the night and when I open the lid again in the morning, the day before on.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  As much as I know Satellite A210 isn't always supported WXP. What GST version you have installed on your A210?

  Until that Toshiba does not offer tested WXP tools and utilities, you can face more similar questions. In any case, you can try to use Windows XP Home edition power options and check the functionality. Maybe it will work well.

• Autolock office after 1 minute without having a screen saver or management settings that take in charge of power

  My vista computer locks my desktop (just like Win + L) automatically after 1 minute of inactivity so I don't have a screen saver or any power management settings that could indicate that.

  I timed it it and its exactly 1 minute of inactivity on the keyboard or the mouse.

• Power host in vCenter management settings

  I'm looking for a way through PowerCLI say if the 'Properties' link for power management settings is grey.  Recommendations from VMware and HP, we do power management settings in the BIOS influence in case the link of 'Properties' to be greyed out.  I need a way to quickly check compliance on all our guests that it is grayed out.

  Because somehow, vCenter knows if show it grayed out or not, there must be a way to get this information from PowerCLI, I guess, just have not been able to find.

  I have attached the images to a properly configured host (link grayed out) and a host that is not configured correctly (link not in gray).

  Thanks LucD!  I actually thought a way to do this that uses the data extension that you provided, but the AvailablePolicy option within ability shows only 1 option if the link properties is disabled and 4 if it isn't then I just took a count of this property to indicate if it is disabled.

• Power Manager BUG?

  Hi people;

  I have a x130e on Windows 7 (x 64) with Power Manager installed 6.68.8 with the Lenovo Power Management driver (from the same package).

  What I see is that the always on function USB does not work. It is enabled in the BIOS and enabled in the power management.

  But, on the way of troubleshooting, I noticed something about the power management program and wonder if there is a bug.

  If I go in the global settings of power and enable always on USB but that also, even when the computer is off, then click on apply, check marks remain. However, as soon as I shut off Power Manager and then re - start, the check marks are gone. They disappear.

  The same thing happens with the beep when power state changes button. Even if, with this one, it looks like the feature rest after restarting the App (I can hear it).

  I guess you can imagine that the always on USB troubleshooting feature made much more difficult when the Soft Power Manager seems to lose the settings after you close the program.

  A confirmation or ideas would be appreciated. I uninstalled the program and re-installed and rebooted the computer - same thing.

  UPDATE > I went all the way back to version 6.38 and I see the same behavior - the settings are not enabled between sessions of Power Manager.

  Nevermind, I solved the problem by removing the Power Manager software...

  Not the greatest witness, it's course...

• E520 power management

  Hi people, a little help please:

  Just got a new 3FU E520. I played with power management settings, but the display always dims/locking the lappy upward after 1 min. I changed the settings around password, settings AC and battery, etc., and the result is always the same.

  I have the most up to date drivers according to Lenovo update. Can't even get through to Lenovo Support via phone...

  Any ideas? Thank you!

  Nevermind - apparently you just can't customize the existing settings, had to create a custom from scratch.

  I am new to the forum and some difficulties with my power management settings.
  Don't know why, but don't can't Hibernate my system or to keep. If I go to the Start button and try to shut down the system, I can only close or restart the computer. The standby or Hibernate button is sunk in gray, not allowing to choose these options.

  From what I remember, these functions were functional when I bought the computer.
  Can someone give me a help?
  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Pedro

  First of all welcome to the Toshiba Support Forum ;)
  I'll try to help you.
  Well, you can find on unit you Toshiba Power Saver tool. This tool allows to use the Hibernate and standby modus. Please go to control panel, then power saving.
  There you can find lots of options and tabs. Go to advanced. The Enable hibernate support option must be marked.
  I won t explain all the options, but check these options in this tool.

• Satellite A200 + Vista Ultimate - power management does not work

  No matter what I apply to the power management settings of the screen never goes and the PC never sleep or standby extended. Screen saver does not either - except once - yesterday, for the first time since I bought the PC in August. Has not yet done.

  I assumed that this is a bug in Vista. "Tech Guy" PC World (ha ha) cannot repair. Is it at the level of the BIOS or something else? Of course, there is an incompatibility between the OS and the hardware. Video chipset? If you choose a balanced power management, the screen slightly off if you take out the power cord, but that's all that happens. Power management is all set to default.

  It's exhausting, because whenever I want to leave the PC for a while, I have to put it to sleep manually.
  Anyone got any ideas?

  Thank you

  Peter

  Hello Peter

  First of all are the guys responsible for tech updates? They must offer that you support for the hardware you have and clarify also all problems, if you use a preinstalled recovery media.

  Upgrade is your decision, and it is possible that it may have some negative influence on the functionality of the OS. All this is quite complex. As you know Vista has own power management options. Toshiba install PVAT (ValueAddedPackage) and after doing this there are some additional settings.

  The question is: How did you get the OS upgrade? Did you do a clean install? Have you installed all the stuff from the download page of Toshiba including VAP?

  With other words: all the basic settings on energy consumption are defined in the BIOS. AFAIK in Vista is the management of clean energy implemented and Toshiba installed just a plugin. If these rudimentary BIOS settings are not changed, I guess everything works fine. Change the settings of the BIOS with an update, I can imagine that different settings will not work correctly.

  Hmm, that's really not easy to say what you can do. Maybe check for the last update of the BIOS and after doing that it is trying to put the clean install of Vista Ultimate. And, of course, you must install all the stuff from Toshiba following the document of instructions for installations.
