    After last ThinkVantage update Power Manager stopped working with critical error, something like "A problem has occured with PWMUI.EXE [...]". Same with DLL being loaded from autostart. Power meter gauge does not appear.

    Tried to reinstal, uninstall and install again but with no success. Backed to older version - same problem.

    Any ideas what may be wrong?

    T60, Windows XP SP3.

    Did you try system restore? This is why I never update unless needed.
