New Computer Setup intel ATM incompatible

[CMSlemp3]

I'm installing new PCs in many of our units, as 7 of them are 10 years old. I started on the 1st two today. I am also getting a message that Intel Active Management Technology is not compatible with this version of Windows (Windows 7 Pro). I looked for it to uninstall intel AMT, but couldn't find it. I checked the MS sites for bug-fixes, but the only one that seemed to apply required entering a SQL server name in a dialog box. Couldn't find that, either. What's up with this?

It would really be nice if these PCs were shipped with the recommended software pre-configured. Then problems like this can be identified and fixed at the front end. As Dr. W. Edwards Deming taught, Total Quality Management (TQM) starts at production and fixing problems becomes more expensive (in time, materials and customer satisfaction) down the distribution chain.

What's the make/model of the new ones? It's possible CHQ has an image for it that was left off by the vender prior to shipping.

This question should probably be moved to a new thread ....

I would just call support. (I've noticed the menu options have changed, and there is no clear local unit tech support option. You have to press option 2 for ecclesiastical leaders.)

This has been discussed before. Unfortunately we are free labor, so our costs and frustration are not factored into it. The machines are better than they used to be though.

Good suggestion. I have split this new discussion from the topic New Computer Setup.

I can't speak for CMSlemp3, but last week our stake received new computers, which were Dell Optiplex 7010 desktops, with Intel i3 CORE processors. I have done the initial setup on all of them, and never encountered any issues at all with Intel ATM.
