New power mgmt drivers?

#1 Post by pae77 » Mon Jan 22, 2007 3:03 pm

On the Lenovo download support site there is a new power mgmt driver available, however, there are two .exe files linked to with no instructions as to which one is appropriate to use.

Version: 1.41
Release Date: 2007/01/22
File link File size File description
7jku06ww.exe 1,364,168 ThinkPad Power Management driver

7jku08ww.exe 1,361,840 ThinkPad Power Management driver

7jku08ww.txt 11,377 README for Power Management driver


Moreover, the instructions say software installer provides installation support but running software installer doesn't pick up the update. But it is seems fairly obvious from reading the notes that it is appropriate for a t42p to install this update. But which file to install?
HP DV8t | Intel i7-Q 720 | 6GB (DDR3 1333) RAM | 1 TB (500GB Seagate 7200 rpm x2)| GeForce GT 230M (1GB) | 18.4" FHD | SuperMulti 8X w Lightscribe | FP Reader | Bluetooth | HDTV Tuner | Win 7 Ultimate x64. Backup: T61p (8891-CTO)

The 08 version would be newer than the 06 version. Additionally, the .txt file is also 08. My vote would be to go with the 7jku08ww.exe 1,361,840 ThinkPad Power Management driver.

You can download the above driver. Double-click on it to extract it's files, then launch Software Installer, choose Install or upgrade driver(s) or software, click Next >, then uncheck box to Retrieve latest information on the internet, then Next >.
