I find the green brightness meter that pops up when I am on battery to be annoying. Is there a setting where I can disable this?

There is an "On Screen Display" tab in the advanced video settings dialog. On that tab, there is an "Enable on-screen dispaly" check box.

To get to the advanced video settings dialog in Windows 7:

  1. Right-click on the desktop, select "screen resolution"
  2. Choose "Advanced Settings"
  3. Click on "On Screen Display" tab

I recommend using ThinkVantage System Update to ensure the latest drivers are installed.

  • The latest versions have a nicer looking On-Screen Display (OSD) with configurable colors.
  • Also there is never any OSD when the screen brightness is altered (I am not sure if this is by design or a bug.)

thanks for the info: I have XP not Windows 7, but I did find the enable OSD checkbox and disabled it. I would have thought that the enable/disable checkbox for the batter meter would have been in the battery settings, not the display settings, so your help is much appreciated. – vilmosz Apr 16 '10 at 23:05
