Thinkpads Forum

Hello all,

I'm not sure when or how exactly this happened, but my ThinkVantage software seems to have stopped working, and the System Update will not go beyond 7% when looking for new software. My network gauge that used to be in the taskbar near the clock has also disappeared, but my network feed still works (the windows icon is there, and I can still open and connect through Access Connections).

Here is what seems to have stopped working:
- the blue ThinkVantage button
- the ThinkVantage Productivity Center
- the Volume meter no longer appears
- the Message Center
- the Network signal strength meter
- ThinkVantage System Updates

I am running Windows XP Pro, and I use Internet Explorer 7 and Microsoft Live OneCare.

Any help is of course appreciated, and if you need any more info please let me know.

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried going onto the Lenovo website and just trying to update them individually instead of using system update?
