I have a T400 running Win7. Has anyone had any conflicts between Win7's Power control panel and ThinkVantage's Power Manager? Which takes precedence? Do they synchronize their settings in some way? What happens when you change settings in the Windows Power control panel while ThinkVantage's Power Ma...

Please give me your Cheers and Jeers regarding the different ThinkVantage apps available for the T400 using Win7. Which ones do I really need? Which ones are nice to have? Which are a waste of time and performance? Does Win7 handle most everything fine on its own? Opinions much appreciated. Thanks! ...

Anyone else have an opinion on this?

I was not aware of this. I have been using a Thinkpad with a docking station for perhaps the last 8 years and have never "needed" to have the laptop turned off to dock it. Are you saying I have been fortunate or are you suggesting a good work around for the problem?

I read that it is possible to restore the uninstall info by editing the registry, but I did not find details on exactly what or where in the registry to ed...

Wow, thanks for the quick replies! I have tried to reinstall everything and the Software Installer still doesn't think anything has changed. I wasn't aware of the PC Doctor problem and I have recently wiped out my system restore due to a possible virus, so there is really nothing to restore. Can thi...

I have a T43 and have faithfully used Software Installer to keep it up to date. However, after my last update I realize that the Software Installer now believes I have uninstalled a lot of items - items that really are installed.

Any ideas on how to sync Software Installer to reality?

Thanks!
