I'm not sure but those problems could be cause by updating a BIOS to 2.27 version. I tried to reinstall all the software but nothing happens.
It's strange because I have never those problems on Windows 7.

Anyone has the same problems? Is there any solution without reinstalling the System?

Pls help me because I can't connect new network, define fingerprints or chnge power plans with ThinkVantage Software.

Try and go back to the previous BIOS version you had.
Otherwise, these are Windows 7 software problems, not T6x.

I had gone to the previous BIOS version (2.26) but the problem was the same.

I deinstalled updates and ThinkVantage Software but this didn't helped. I still can't change power plans, enroll fingerprints or look for new WiFi network.

Any other ideas? Am I alone with those problems?

Uninstall, clean the registry from old entries manually, try to install again newest releases. If it does not help, my guess would be some HDD failure symptoms (bad sectors), try to check HDD for errors.

Uninstall/reinstall programs and/or Windows. I have the same setup with no problems at all.

I've reinstalled Windows and now everything is ok. I'm hope nothing change.
