Power Manager will not run!

I am running Windows 7 professional x64 and I have installed the appropriate power manager software/driver and it even appears under programs in windows but I cannot get the application to actually open. Any suggestions?

 

So nothing appears when you click on it?

 

Correct, when I go to where the app is located, for some reason in the drivers folder and open any of the applications in the folder they do not open.

 

new windows 7 power manager found here:

Edit: seems link link is dead (again...) Lenovo needs to fix these . Then again my internet is buggy...

Try this link: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/WIN7-BETA.html

scroll down to where it says "power manager" and download that file

If that doesnt work, try launching the program under administrator. I've seen people uninstalling/reinstalling their .NET Framework 3.0. Go ahead and give that a try

 

Installed by following that link, still no luck. Could you walk me through .NET I haven't been able to find any information about it for Windows 7?

 

honestly I think its quite a stretch to say that Framework is the culprit.

If you didnt uninstall the previous power manager, I suggest uninstalling it first then reinstall the newest version

 

why does he need to install the sdk?

and vista/7 has .net framework installed already. you don't have to install it again.

 

I just remember reading it somewhere. Never said it would actually work
