    hello,

    just got a 1682wlci-xph (whatever) and i'm really happy wiht it. however, i have noticed that the windows little battery meter in the systray always reports roughly a half hour to an hour less than ePowerManagement from acer. Which one is correct? and, how can i remove whichever one is incorrect so i don't get worried?

    thanks,
    rohan

    If you dont use ePowermanager , better unistall it there are other problems associated with..like it will only throttle cpu speed from low to high speed directly
