Windows Forum / Windows Vista / Performance and Maintainance / December 2006vista on notebook
dear sir/madam I'm using BenQ Joybook S53 notebook and installed the buid 6000 vista (x86) I would like to enable the battery icon and change AC/DC power option (shutdown windows and save doc when battery power gone), as I know that's the function under "Windows Mobility Center", means under //windows/system32/mblctr.exe \open, but when I'm open it, the reply is "this is only for Mobile PC"....that's what I'm using.....lol ps : one error driver can't installed right now....seems that is something "Bus control ", is it is the point? also that driver I can't find any update for vista yet in the offical web site... looking for your reply and X'mas ^^ Kevin Windows Mobile Device Center is for Windows Mobile PCs ... Pocket PCs and Smartphones ... not for laptop computers. You need to check with your notebook manufacturer for device drivers for your laptop.  SignatureRichard G.

At least it does all this on my notebook :-) For finer grained control of power settings the Power Options under Mobile PC is a better choice but the Mobility Center does have some limited power setting options and should run if he has the needed drivers.

You'll have to talk to the manufacturer to find out if Vista is supported and if you need any special drivers or BIOS updates. It sounds like it is not just a setting that needs to be changed.
