Hi, I'm a noob in need of help. I want to upgrade some 770z/x Thinkpads and found a single download site for the Power Leap Utility, I tried installing it on a couple of different pc's with no luck. I get the following error message:

Powerleap CPU Control Panel Setup

An error occurred during the move data process: -113
Component:
File Group:
File:C:\DOCUME~1\WAVESK~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WZS2.tmp\data1.hdr

Can any of you kind souls help me with this?

Try to rename the .exe file to .zip and extract the contents to a folder, then run the setup from there.

I had the same problem. When you click on the link, select 'Open' and run from location instead of 'Save' to download to your computer.

If that doesn't work there's a post in this forum about Powerleap that has a good link.

Please use the .rar version. This works fine !

thanks for the suggestions, folks. I had no luck with the first one--will try the second one when i get home and will keep you guys posted. I don't have the software to open .rar files, though.

well, i'm getting the same error message with the second suggestion--anybody have any more options before i'm forced to purchase the software to open an .rar file?

From where did you download the Powerleap utility?
I got it from the following link. I could open the file without any problem at all.
http://www.powerleap.ca/Downloads/PLeap ... _0_0_1.exe

that's where i got it...and i just tried again using your link...same "move data" error. could it have anything to do with the advanced internet options settings? i'm going to try unchecking/checking the option for installing software with invalid signatures--anybody think that that could be where the problem lies? mind you, i'm not anything close to being a geek, so stuff that you might expect to be common knowledge may not occur to me.

There was someone else who had this problem last year:
Problem installing PleapCCP_V5_1_0_0_1.rar

I don't know where this problem comes from. Maybe try turning off your virus scanner (after scanning the exe for viruses first!)? I would download the "exe" version from shined's link above to your desktop first and not run it directly from within your browser. Close your browser, run a virus check on the file, disable your virus scanner, and then double click on the file on your desktop and see if that makes any difference.

Do you know if you have "administrator" rights on your computer?

Lastly, if all you want is to enable your L2 cache, then you could try downloading this other version, which comes from Powerleap.com instead of Powerleap.ca:

PowerLeap Cache Utility
http://www.powerleap.com/downloads/util ... tility.zip

I think this is the version that I'm using on my 770Z, and all it does is enable the L2 cache. The CPU utility does quite a bit more than that I think, but I don't know for sure what the difference is between the versions or between the two companies. Also, note that there are lots of other utilities that will give you information about your CPU if that is all you want to use the utility for. The only reason to use the PowerLeap CPU utility is because of its specific ability to enable the L2 cache.

i only want to enable the L2 cache, so, i will try the cache utility download, and let you know how it works. thanks to all of you.

okay, i was able to install the cache utility--which was really what i wanted all along; i don't know how i got sidetracked on that cpu control panel thing.

i'll be back for more help once i start doing the actual upgrades. thanks, again.
