'voltage design' vs real 'tension' in the power manager

Just today, all around the navigation in the power manager, I noticed that the values of 'design' and 'tension' on the 'battery' tab are different! The "design power" reads 11.10V, while the 'tension' reads 12.06V.

I feel that it is actually normal... but maybe someone can confirm my suspicions? Out of curiosity, why these two values differ and what that means?

I use using a T510 running on win7 x 64, if this is no help at all.

voltage will drop over time, while the nominal voltage provides a constant reference point to tell you what kind of condition is in your battery, and if it needs to be replaced.

  • Backlight is disabled until the power management software is loaded on the Satellite M40 - 295

    Greetings to all members of the forum.

    I am owner of ten months a Satellite M40-295. My problem is the following:

    When I start my computer the backlight is disabled until I go into Windows and the power management program is loaded.
    After that the backlight of the screen lights up. I tried to change the brightness with Fn-F6/7 and screens using Fn + F5 without success.

    Init information (init messages, such as the Toshiba and Windows logo) appears on the screen (I checked it under the intense light and the screen from another angle of view), so the adapter seems to work properly.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Evangelos

    I'm afraid that now, you have a problem. If the unit won't start the BIOS chip is probably damaged. In my opinion BIOS update was bad idea.

    Right now I don't want write something on the screen because now it is not important at all. Please contact the customer Service of your country partner and let check the device. Sorry, but I'm 99.9% that the unit is now completely screwed.

    If the appliance shows any sign of life is the case for the service. :(

  • How to stop the power management to change my clock speed?

    Greetings,

    I run a HP compaq nx6320 laptop.

    I noticed that sometimes, when the computer is unplugged, the clock speed of the processor is reduced. intuitively, this seems to be a technique of energy saving.

    Using the Intel processor identification utility, I get something like this:

    And I suffer notable sluggish performance for all applications.

    I know that laptops tend to conserve that unplugged while power, some for example dim the screen, but they allow the user to increase the lighting, although it would reduce the time the computer can work with batteries.

    I want something similar about the speed of the processor, I want to turn this feature off and power the computer at full speed while it is unplugged.

    In addition, this feature is errornous, I took the screenshot above, while my computer is running on the current! and do not know why the power management insists on reducing the clock speed.

    All this turns out be caused by overheating. I'm misleaded by the tip of the utility intel PID.

    The fan of my computer was blocked by the filter sponge, which is made of a material that is poor, so partially decomposed and clogged the fan.

  • Latest version of the Power Manager

    Hello

    I have problems with the management of feeding on VISTA SP1 RC Refresh and would like to know if v8.03 is the latest driver.

    Specifically, the latest version of SP1 crashes when you have Toshiba Power Management and Wireless Lan to operate. Deactivation of the Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG driver in Device Manager solves the problem.

    Hello

    As far as I know at this time SP1 for Vista is still beta and now Toshiba offers not preinstalled Vista SP1. I guess that after installation of SP1 problems may occur but before Toshiba offer recovery with SP1 image implemented all problems must be fixed.

    It also means that all drivers of most recent, tools or utilities will be available on the support page. This was the case in the past and I'm sure that the same thing will happen in the future. Because of that I really don't think that someone can give you instructions specific how to handle problems after the installation of SP1.

    In any case, it will be interesting to know exactly what is happening, and if you have time please let us know if there is a problem.

    Bye and good luck!

  • automatically optimize for costs of life battery batt to 100% within the parameters of the power manager

    In the settings of my ThinkPad Power Manager W530, I chose the option "automatically optimize for life battery" (battery-> maintenance-> Mode of Charge of the battery). Nevertheless, he always fresh and keeps the battery at 100%. Is it normal for a battery 9 cells?

    Link to photo

    But many articles and discussions here at the forum State, actually in charge at 100% is not tor good battery life (see for example this article http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Welcome-FAQs-Knowledge-Base/How-can-I-increase-battery-life-ThinkPad/ta-... ). Do not miss anything?

    Thank you!

    Note of the moderator; image (s) for a total of > 50 K converted for the programming of the Forum rules

    No matter how many charge cycles the battery on it, just the time where you change the batteries maintenance mode. If you have configured to maximize battery life, the battery may charge at a lower percentage (somewhere around 90%, more or less a few percentage points), but will show this figure as "integral" or 100% for the system. If you change the mode to load completely, then the maximum capacity will change to read the actual capacity of the battery.

    The only way your situation would be a concern if, after setting the battery in order to maximize the battery life, then using the system on battery and load up once again, the battery always charged up to the full 94 w/h instead of reducing the number.

  • Can not make any changes to the "power management". Says only "home/desk", no other choice. You want to change mode 'sleep'!

    I got different choices under the front power management, but when I checked 'Hibernate' it changed for only one choice. I cancelled the hibernation and it lists than "Home/office under power management.  That's happened?

  • a serious problem on the power manager

    Hello, I'm X 230 user using windows 7 and have improved the ability of the ram to 8 GB.

    It is not easy to believe, but I've struggled with this problem for a year.

    The problem is, I cannot uninstall the software, Levono supply manager.

    That the progress of uninstalling the program indicated by the installation process of Power Manager reached 94%, it's freezing outside here.

    Now no matter how much I'm awaiting resolution, it remains still frozen.

    Most ridiculous thing it is when I did close the shield installation process and reboot the laptop, Windows could not start

    while I do the system restore to roll back.

    How can I uninstall Lenovo Power Manager?

    * the reason why should I uninstall it it's done a lot of crushed against the software I use

    Thanks in advance

    Fortunately, I found a solution.

    During the uninstallation of the program progress was stuck, instead of restarting, I just ran the shield to uninstall manually at the command prompt. After a while, another unistall process has reached 100% and I managed to uninstall properly.

  • Features of the power manager and other problems associated with the T510

    For the better part of 5 years, I was a happy user of an IBM Z60m and decided it was time to move my z60 to my son and buy a new T510.  Well, I have after several weeks of property I can honestly say I'm irritated and frustrated by several current issues and I'm ready to send back all.

    Starting from the moment I pulled it out of the box I was having problems of power management.  I was on Microsoft help forums, called the lenovo support and spent countless hours on blogs and forums looking for help.   No matter what I do in the put lenovo on arrangements to take away my computer goes to stanby after one minute of inactivity and then wonder my windows password.  After a full day to insert my password my frustration level is off the chart.  I removed the password in the settings of the user who has not helped.  I changed the global settings to disable password in stanby mode which did not help.  I changed the function to optimize power and others, but none of it helped.

    Beyond these problems... I inserted two different discs to insert new programs and my system kept telling me that he did not read either.  I first thought they were zero but my old laptop ibm read without problem.

    So there you have it.

    Are you sure that the system is set the mode after 1 minute?  Or is the screen is locked?

    Try this:

    1. right click on the desktop and choose "Customize".

    2. click on "screen saver" in the lower right corner

    3. uncheck the box that says "On Resume, the logon screen"

    Which solves your problem?

  • Edge 14. Battery not charging after the Power Manager Update to 6.07 and resetting the battery.

    My battery will do not, at all.

    The gauge was obviously wrong to happen very quickly after reaching 20%, so I've updated the power to 6.07 Manager and then perform a reset of the battery (I'm sure it's in that order, perhaps first reset).

    After resetting the battery charged to 100% back, but as it is discharged, the charger was not.  With the power, the battery is located just at the same percentage and descends very slowly (about 1% in two days).

    I tried to play with the parameters of maintenance battery, the meter then said that charge will begin less than 80%, but the battery is already on the 20%.  I checked the firmware in the Manager of power and with the stand-alone program but apparently no update is necessary and T 42, 4755 FRU part number is not listed as needing an update.

    Current version of the firmware: 3f98-0004-0160-0130

    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Power Manager.  The power windows manager also seems to have the same problem.

    I just baught the laptop last year, is a month out of warranty; I need it to be portable to work.

    I thought about buying a new battery, but it seems to be the charge function is not working, and the battery was working fine before the reset and the update, apart from the loss of certain abilities and the inaccurate meter.

    Hi NINE.

    Thank you for hospitality, the effort and the answer.  Greatly appreciated.

    I tried this and just tried to reinstall the firmware of power management.

    I finally solved the problem after reading this post by:

    1 shut down the computer.

    2. unplug the power supply cord (and everything - usb and monitor cables).

    3 remove the battery.

    4. play with the spring on the battery switches and shake threatening (probably unnecessary, but you may want to give it 10 to 15 seconds on the laptop).

    5. replace the battery in the laptop.

    6. connect the power cord.

    7. start the laptop and connect.

    Thanks again.

  • Update seems to have messed up the power management.

    SOLVED!

    I am running windows 7 Home premium sp1 on an acer aspire 5250.

    When I went to bed last night, everything was fine, but I went down this morning and my screen was bright until what I moved the mouse and then it went dim. I have connected and had a notification of update windows successfully but I noticed my icon at the bottom of the screen wasn't there (my internet connection icon disappeared too) I tried to restart the notebook and it's the same: bright screen until I moved the mouse and then dim. I went into Control Panel and tried to open it 'power options' and nothing happens. No error message, it responds just as if I had not clicked. I clicked at random on one couple of other options that responded normally it seems to just be food options that do not work. Can anyone help?

    I also found my anti virus has been turned off and would not restart. I've uninstalled and restarted the computer and all problems are gone! Problem solved.
