Power Manager 3.2 battery tab freeze

[tsservo]

Hi all. I've been trying to track down some random system lockups and occasionally-dead USB ports on my Win7 T60p. Out of warranty, of course.

Poking around in Power Manager I found a USB Selective Suspend setting, which I think fixed my occasionally-dead USB ports, but every time that I click on the Battery tab, Power Manager 3.2 freezes hard. Sometimes I can kill it with Task Manager, but more often than not I've got to reboot.

I don't recall this happening previously, and I'm wondering if it started when I installed v3.2. I tried reinstalling with no effect, but now I'd like to try installing an older version (but can't find it).

Does anyone have any ideas why my Battery tab might be freezing, and/or if an install of an older version might help?

Thanks

Tim

Tim;
mate , best thing you can do is UN INSTALL TVT POWER MANAGER ; reboot and
make sure your BIOS is uptodate .....

Then download the latest one and before installing make sure the WINDOWS 7 Power manger is SET ( to whatever you want the laptop to do....etx)

Once its Win& is set , reboot and than INSTALL TVT POWER Manager...
( pls look at the TXT file for the latest power manager re prequisites etc)

In my T60p - (now with my nephew @ uni) it did same things ,,, and I as a suggestions , I NEVER LIKED ThinkVantage software(TVT) i never installed any of them except Power manager and hot key ,,,,,
(now that T60p runs dual boot win7 & OSX SL..... never a y issues reported for last 7-9 mths approx!)

hope this helps

Cheers

Thanks for the leads, but none of that sorted anything out.

I'm sort of at the point of just living with it and not clicking on the battery tab... Now if I could solve my "doesn't go to sleep without crashing error" I'd be happy...

Just about at the point of reinstalling Win7 to see if that fixes matters.

Thanks again.
