TP 365X/XD,380,385,560,600,760,765,770 - Problems Installing Thinkpad Utility Diskette for Windows 95 version 4.11
Applicable to: World-Wide
SYMPTOM:
Installing Thinkpad Utility Diskette 4.11 for Windows 95 on OSR0 or OSR1 causes Fuel Gauge errors and prevents setting power management settings via Thinkpad Configuration Program. ALSO - Installing this version on 365X/XD systems causes blue screen error during installation.
CONFIGURATION:
Any ThinkPad 365X/XD, 380, 385, 560, 600, 760, 765, or 770 running Windows 95 OSR0 or OSR1.
SOLUTION:
Download and install the latest version of the Utility Features Diskette.
- Click here to obtain the latest version of the Utility Diskette.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There are two open issues with the latest Utility Diskettes for Windows 95:
1) If version 4.11 of the Utility Diskette for Windows 95, AND the machine is running Windows 95 Retail Version with or without the Service Pack 1 applied (OSR0 or OSR1), the Fuel Gauge problem will error out and fail to run. Additionally, the POWER options in Thinkpad Configuration Program does not display all the options that it should.
2) If the 4.11 Utility Diskette is installed with the latest Utility Data Diskette for the 3XX machines (version 1.02) is installed on a Thinkpad 365X/XD system, a blue screen "Cannot Read From the Diskette" error occurs, and it asks the user to reinsert the diskette (identified only by its label IDU505US) and press enter. If the user does this, the installation will finish. However, if the user has OSR0 (as was preloaded on all but the last release of these machines) they will then suffer from the problem described in item 1 above.
