simple battery maximizer question

#1 Post by dsigma6 » Tue May 30, 2006 7:48 pm

ive seen some screenshots with the green battery max shown on the taskbar- and it had the time remaining inside the green battery- mine shows the percent remaining...anyone know how to fix that?

ive looked everywhere...wonder if my vision is going.

edit: oh and another, searched for "graphic device power management," an option when you left click the taskbar icon, but dont know what it does!

AFAIK, that's only available on T43 models and newer. The ones that use Power Manager. If you have Power Manager, you do not use Battery MaxiMiser. Some have installed Power Manager on ThinkPad Models not listed, but not me. Do so at your own risk.

Power manager driver for Windows 2000/XP - ThinkPad R51e, R52, R60, R60e, T43, T43p, T60, T60p, X32, X41, X41 Tablet, X60, X60s, Z60m, Z60t, Z61e, Z61m, Z61t
