I've downgraded from Vista to XP > some problems
Posted: Thu Oct 18, 2007 3:44 pm
Hello,
finally, I have downgraded from annoying vista to XP. The process have been done by official Lenovo service. I have T60 15" FlexView.
After the reinstall, I updated my system - I installed everything except some Lenovo help - it took 2.04 GB and about 6 hours (!). Upgrading was smooth except one issue which I solved (something about InstalShield). Now I have those problems:
1) When I press Fn+F3(power manager), it does not open PM but access connections (same as Fn+F5). Even if I starting PM manually (start>thinkvantage>powermanager) firstly the access connections appears, and then after a while appear PM too.
2) Client Security Solution - I have now CSS 6.01 (is it newest for XP?) and it looks different than the one which I have on vista before. Each time I started XP some annoying window appear, and it wanted to configure CSS. I tried both Auto and Advanced config, and every time it ends with some error about creating personal keys. Thirdly, on vista, when I entered any password in a browser, it save it as fingerprint. Now, this never appears, so I have to write my logins and passwords all the time.
3) when I wake up the computer from a sleep mode, I cannot turn it off. Start>turn off does nothing, same as ALT+F4. The only way is to push power button.
Thank you all IBM men for help.
