See setting if you can change it. Try Maximum and Ultimate battery

Hi, I have a bigger problem. Not only my power management is missing, but also many other drivers. I did a clean install and now I can not even listen to music. It’s not ok at all. I hate this situation. No sound, no keyboard extra FN functions, no power managemnt, 2 ? in the Device Manager…
I have a VGN-FE11H and I ask for your help. Please help me, the drivers from the Sony’s website can not all be installed.

Here is VAIO Power Management 1.7.00.08011

Thanks ngvuanh, thank you very much! I appreciate your effort. But please help me to install them (the drivers). I’ve managed to install all of them, but without the modem and audio ones. Neither does want to install it selves, even thou they have executable installers.
1. The audio driver is from SigmaTel. I tried the SETUP.EXE, but I receive ‘Device Object not present, restart the system and try again’. After many restarts still nothing. I also tried to install it manually through ‘Add new hardware’ and now is present in Device manager, but still no sound or audio device present in Sounds from Control Panel.
2. The modem driver (‘Soft Data Fax Modem with SmartCP’ from Conexant I think) is even worse. When I execute HXFSETUP.EXE I get a big nothing. Nothing changes. When tried manually, it shows no driver to choose from in the Modem tab from Add new hardware.
Please help me because I find this situation extremely strange!

Hi,
Let me know Details tab of your modem and sound devices, I may have something do help you out. These similar pictures below.

Thanks, but there is no need to do that. I’ve managed to install both audio and modem drivers with a tip from another forum (I don’t know if I’m allowd to say the name); from a ‘vaio-master’. I had to download a patch from Micosoft and only after installing it to try to set up the needed drivers.
Thank you very much; and if someone is in a similar ‘position’, tell me and I’ll post the needed link to that forum or to the patch.

hi ngvuanh
i received sware thanks, but when istalled this give error (before - InstallShield Wizard Complete) display “SPM Module has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience”

Yeah, I have to say I found the guy who gets the solution and fails to post it pretty annoying. This is all that came up on google and it took me ages to figure it out by hand. You need (or at least I did) to download and install a patch from Microsoft called kb888111. You can find it as an KB article, and then if you poke around you can find the download too (same name, but with .exe on the end).

Hope this helps anyone else with this problem!!!!

[quote author=“hugepedlar”]I’m having exactly the same problem. I’d be extremely grateful if you could post your solution here, as I’m sure would many other people. Google searching has yielded nothing for once.

I too need the sony power management utility and am hoping someone from this thread will see I need it and be able to help me out. Thanks in Advance.
