Power Plan Information Isn't Available
Jan 8, 2010
I am trying to change power setting but I got a message "Your power plan information isn't available." I will download a game that will take me like 8 hours. I'm about to sleep already and decided to change power setting and sleep option but options are not available. I activated the account administrator and have 2 account administrators. I logged in on the account administrator and got no option. Same as with the other account. What should I do?

I have my power plan set to Energy Star with display brightness set around 40% when on battery and 100% when plugged in. It seems to get reset periodically to the default which 40% for both battery and plugged in. I haven't been able to reliably reproduce the problem but every few days the plugged in setting gets reset to 40%. Is this a known problem with Windows 7?

Anyways, in laptops (gaming or not), does setting the power plan to High Performance actually improve gaming (frame rates, speed and anything else) in battery mode? I'm using a laptop (not dedicated gaming, but suffices) and my games (the recent ones) slow down whenever I'm in battery mode. A couple of friends told me I should set it High Performance, which I doubted since they don't seem to be the type to change the power plan settings and more so with the advanced plan settings.

I recently installed Windows 7 Pro-Ed, on my HP Pavillion Dv4z-1200 laptop that runs with these specs: Dual-Core AMD Turion X2 2.1GHz 4G DDR2 250GB.I cannot seem to edit the power settings to my laptop. I click on power options to change when it can sleep and I get the error: (X) Your power plan information isn't available. Why can't Windows retrieve this information?When I ran Windows 7 release candidate for several months on my laptop prior to installing the full professional version, I had never encountered this error.

This week the rest of my build should arrive in the mail... but in the mean time I want to install and set up windows 7 so I can just plug it and go when all my stuff comes in. I won't update drivers and whatever else... but I should be fine just swapping a drive between machines as long as I don't install drivers from the set up machine?

I've done a lot of searches using variations of the above title and came up empty or just plain missed the answer.I'd like to know, if it is not asking too much, the following points:
1. What exactly is the function of Link State Power Management in the Power Options Advanced Settings, PCI Express?
2. What are the implications of using the options available:
a) Off.
b) Maximum power savings.
c) Moderate power savings.
d) Which option is the best selection for my Dell laptop.

I use my PC for audio production and I have a few external controller devices that are USB powered, for example a midi keyboard. I recently had to build PC due to a theft....long story short after building the new PC I've noticed that my USB buses have continual power to these external devices after I've powered down the PC. My old windows 7 PC did not do this. Is there a setting I can change to shut off power to the USB buses when I power off the PC? Or is this a hardware issue?

Over the past 2 years my PC has been afflicted with random power off/power on/reboot events.It will go for months without these and then have multiples of the events in a day. (I had 8 of them 3 days ago.)I assume I have a hardware problem, but nothing has been found and I'm grasping at straws.The time between power off and power on is several seconds.I had assumed this rules out a software cause, but maybe I'm wrong. I know Windows can schedule a power off, but can it tell BIOS (or something) to power back on in a few seconds?I know blaming the power supply is a much more simple explanation, but then I'm left with explaining the intermittent nature of the failure.

My computer wouldn't shut down, even with holding in the power button, and so I just let it run out the battery. Then it wont turn on. I tried holding down the power button to clear out any charge that might be remaining. I have managed to get it back on, but I have to make a connection at the clip where you plug the power button ribbon into the mobo. Also, this is the second time I have had to do this. The computer works fine afterwards...or seems to anyway.

My boss had me upgrade a co-worker's home computer from Windows XP to 2007. I made the mistake of not doing a clean backup of all the documents and other information.eedless to say, the upgrade wiped away all the software and the setup from before. Working with the co-worker, most of the programs have been restored, but there are two issues that right now are the most pressing, which concern Microsoft Outlook and Itunes.The co-worker had a series of older e-mails and contacts saved in Outlook that are obviously no longer there after the upgradeAs far as ITunes, there is a folder for MyMusic but only what appears to be one large file document for the music. What confused me in this instance was that there were 3 songs that were not recently downloaded in that folder. If the co-worker plugs in his Ipod to charge it, will he lose the tracks there? I advised him to contact Apple to look into his account and recover any songs that he downloaded.

What information is in the ntuser.dat file? Is is simply profile information or does it contain information about browsing as well? I use ccleaner to delete the .dat files in the temp internet file area, but I don't want to have browsing history, especially accounts, exposed someplace else.

I just bought the retail dvd of Halo 2 and I'm trying to install it on Windows 7.The install pops up a message box that says Quote: "This computer's performance information has not been created.You should create performance information on this computer before running Halo 2 for Windows Vista.Click Start, Control Panel, System and Maintenance, and Performance Information and Tools." and the installation stops when I hit 'Run' anyway.But I have done a performance test to create a score of 5.9. I have a quad core i7 with 12 gig of ram and a 2gig Nvidia graphics card. It seems Halo 2 just doesn't recognise the performance information.I've searched but I haven't found anyone else who has had this problem.I can't believe Microsoft seems to have locked this game into Vista-specific requirements - that violates the basic future-proofing principles that Microsoft has been espousing to programmers for years.

i usually record PC games using fraps and it got me thinking to how do people record console footage and then put it on the computer.The problem is i dont know the first thing about gaming capture cards and how they work, i do know however that some of them are PCI cards.
1. if a console is connected to a T.V how is the footage captured from the console to a PC?
2. Does using capture cards also provide audio or do you need certain cables (3.5 jacks, hdmis, etc)
