I have problem with my Power manager. It doesn't seem to work the way it should. The first thing is that I can't change power schemes in power manager, I have to go via windows inbuilt power options. When I change scheme in windows power options the scheme will also be changed in the power manager.

The second and biggest problem is that none of the changes i make in power manager seems to have any effect on the computer. For instance if I want the brightness of the screen go down to 3 after some time of idleness. So i'm guessing that the cpu speed options is not working either.

Does anyone have the same problem? I have updated power manager drivers and the power manager software. I have a T60 2007 model.

I am having the same problem since I updated bios firmware (79ET65WW) & power manager last week. Have tried rolling back to previous versions, but it had no effect.

You should probably try Windows System Restore. Go to Start > Help and Support > Pick a task > Undo changes to your computer with System Restore. Choose a restore point that was before the time you began having the problem. System Restore will not affect any BIOS updates.

This thread talks to the TP Power Mgr and Windows Power Profiles relationship.
