Change battery charge thresholds on a T41 (2373-2FG)?

#1 Post by mange_ » Wed Feb 06, 2008 12:52 pm

I've downloaded the power management driver for T41 and the power manager for T43 (couldn't find it on the T41 servicepage at Lenovo site) but I can't see the option under battery information in power manager.

Is the feature of changing battery charge threshold even available/possible on the T41 system?

And if so; can anyone post screenshots of where you change the threshold settings?

Cheers,
Magnus

It is possible only with a system board T42 and higher.

Thanks for the quick answer!

How would one go about to change the embedded controller?

Basically... you can't.
