Thinkvantage button not working

#1 Post by Craigyas » Fri Dec 31, 2010 12:21 am

I have installed the thinkvantage toolbox and other various thinkvantage technologies, and none of them work, I get the " this program has stopped working " message, this includes the access connections, power management, and thinkvantage button. any suggestions?

There are too many variables and the error message is too vague to be useful. Are there any red or yellow event flags in the system log under applications (Don't know what OS you are running) ?

Hard to say what is going on, but I would suggest that you run Thinkvantage System Update 4.0 to download and install the correct drivers and applications for your Thinkpad.
