    Hi guys I'm new here. I need your inputs about my problem. I currently have a T60 Lenovo thinkpad and the problem is that when I press the blue ThinkVantage button at startup, the thinkvantage productivity center won't launch. Instead it will bring me to a "Startup Interrupt Menu" screen which says:
    -----------------------------------------------
    Press one of the following keys to continue:

    ESC to resume normal startup
    F1 to enter the BIOS Setup Utility
    F12 to choose a temporary startup device

    Press ENTER to pause ...
    -----------------------------------------------

    Anyone know what the problem is?

    Umm...ThinkVantage is Windows software. That's probably why it's not running while you're booting up.

    Thanks for the reply. How can I reset my thinkpad OS to its factory settings from its preload?
