X201 Vantage power issues in Win 10

[paulgj2]

Hello,

I am trying to get Lenovo Vantage working in Windows 10 to enable me to manage the battery chanrging thresholds better. Unfortunately I can't find the correct power manager driver(s) and keep getting the message The Lenovo power manager driver is not installed or not working properly.

Has anyone managed to get this working on a X201? Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you!

I would try other the latest power management driver or the one on the EOL page for X201. Or maybe this one.

Thanks, tried all those but still no luck, same message in Vantage

I also recall Vantage requiring something known as System Interface Foundation Driver. Do you have that one installed?

I installed it from the link your provided but still no luck. Thanks for the suggestion. Not sure what to try next.

I gave up and managed to install the Power manager version 6.68.13 from the legacy download page and using Win 7 compatibility mode. Seems to work fine, can set battery parameters to extend battery life.

Thanks again
