Hi,

I'm removing the Powerchute Software 2.2 and it uninstalls fine or it seems to, but once it does it the Vista battery options do not come back up. Is there some procedure I need to go through to get those options to come back now?

Thanks,

Harvey Meeker

Edit: I just noticed this thread.

Considering I was using the 2.2 software, maybe I need these instructions sent to me?

I found this article...

http://sturgeon.apcc.com/techref.nsf/partnum/990-3150/$FILE/990-3150-EN.txt

Where it describes looking for the Battery section in Device Manager and uninstalling the device, but I don't have a Battery section. The battery does pop up under HID Devices. But when I do a removal from that and then scan for changes it pops up as APC USB UPS again and there are still no original Vista battery options. Is there something special I need to do to remove the APC device driver and get back the original non-APC Vista driver?
