Jul 6, 2014I have a small issue with my Lenovo G580 (20150). I have Windows 8.1 and i have noticed that my 4GB of RAM DDR3 run at 800mhz. I have searched for everything, even swapped the RAM but there is no change in the frequency, it simply runs on 800mhz. I have tried to update the BIOS from 5ECN39WW (v 3.05) to 5ECN96WW, but whenever i try to do that it comes back with the error message "DC detect error!".Â

Sep 7, 2013I've a Lenovo G580 Laptop (2nd Gen PDC B960, 2 GB, 500 GB, DOS) When I bought it came pre-installed DOS, and then I install Windows 7 ultimate (32-bit, i didn't know at that time, 2nd gen PDC are 64-bit). My friend recommend me to disable UEFI from boot setup before installing any non-genuine OS, so I did disable that. My laptop is working fine, but all of a sudden it started to do random mouse freezes, surprisingly pressing ALT+F4 works like a charm to make mouse work again (by mouse I mean pointer actually,I think may be it's because any virus/malware or whatever that was, and also I was planning to change my OS to Windows 8 (it's after 10-11 month of purchase date), so I decided to format anyway, instead messing up with mouse freeze problem.
I'm not able to start my BIOS setup, nor able to use quick boot option (to select various bootable device option from list)
I try to press recovery key (small button near power button), that open recovery module properly (no glitch/error).but unfortunately I don't have any backup made previously so no use of recovery module.
and then I restart my laptop, then I press F2, it shows the first screen of BIOS menu, but my system stuck there (unresponsive state), i've no option else directly turning it off by holding power key for few seconds,..
and then no boot menu F2, F12 still unresponsive.
means whenever i open recovery module it able to open F2 menu (not F12) but that stuck too.else it just completely ignore F2, F12 I'm not a computer noob (not flaunting), but I spend last 4-5 hours looking for a solution for it, but couldn't find any solution by myself.
although my laptop is not in not working state. somehow I manage to install windows 8, but it's really weird that I can not access BIOS menu, my laptop is no longer in warranty period so I can experiment with it any way I want.
Lenovo B / G Series :: G580 BIOS Update Sets Password?
Jun 10, 2013I have recently downloaded a BIOS update for the G580 - version 20150, and ever since that I am locked out of the BIOS setup menu. It asks for a password, however I haven't set up one, and such, I am unable to change any of the settings.
Â
Changing the values there would be important, because the settings seem to be reset to a default state, for example, I am unable to start any 64bit virtual machines because hardware virtualization is disabled. I was running Qubes OS too, but I am also unable to boot off legacy (MBR partitioned) devices, which I do occasionally to test some new Linux distro when it comes out.
Apropos Linux: as soon as the system starts booting, the screen goes completely blank, and I have to keep pressing brightness-up to see if the system had started. Brightness controls also seem to behave strange under MS Windows too: on the lowest level instead of dimming (what it did before), the screen goes completely blank. The only good thing in this update is that bluetooth now seems to work more reliable under Linux.
Â
Is there a way to remove the password lock from the BIOS and/or revert to the previous version to avoid the screen blanking issue? Would reverting the update also remove the password? If the password can't be removed, is there a safe way to change the settings from a running OS?

Oct 19, 2014The Turbo Boost technology on my Dell Precision M2800 doesn't seem to be working.
I can't find the driver in Device List, or in System Drivers under, though it does exist and is checked in the BIOS.
Obviously I can't find on Dell Drivers.
What do I need to do to fix this?

Dell :: Windows 7 And Turbo Memory Ready Boost Disabled
Dec 16, 2009So I just got my replacement XPS M1640, and luckily enough, the WWAN card slot can be used also for my 1GB 1st gen Turbo Memory card from my M1530. However, upon installing the latest drivers from Intel's website, the Turbo Memory Console indicates that only ReadyDrive is enabled, and that ReadyBoost is disabled. Is there any way to fix this? I know that Turbo Memory is always finicky, as I've dealt with it on my m1530 (but both have been enabled), so when on the 1640 I click the check box to enable it, then restart, it is still disabled, even if I wait 10 minutes in the hopes that it enables after a few minutes of logging in... ?

Aug 17, 2013My HP Envy 15-3040nr has an Intel i7-2670QM processor, which works with Turbo Boost just fine. My laptop goes to a maximum of 3.0 GHz when under full load (I render heavy gameplay videos), and underclocks just fine when in energy saver mode.
Â
However, I want to know if it is possible to LOCK the processor's clock rate at a consistently high rate, say, something like 2.9 (or an unrealistic 3.1 GHz, the rated turbo high) GHz, assuming that heat is not an issue (yes, it obviously will be an issue, but let's just say it isn't).

Lenovo G480 B / G Series :: Bios Is Not Showing Any Option To Select XMP Profile
Feb 10, 2015I have a Lenovo G480(Model 20156). My CPU is Intel Core i3 2370M. I have recently added another 1600 MHz RAM. But it is now showing 1333 MHz. I am using windows 8.1. Though I saw that some laptops can enable that by selecting XMP Profile on BIOS. But, my PCs Bios is not showing any option to select XMP profile or even any Advanced AI option.
Â
My question is,
Â
1. How can I resolve this problem and get my 1600 MHz RAM work fully?
2. How can I enable the XMP profile to get the full advantage of my 1600 MHz RAM?
Lenovo ThinkPad W Series :: W540 - SATA Option (RAID Or AHCI) Gone After BIOS Update To 2.05
Feb 6, 2014W540 20BG001CGE, had BIOS 1.05 and RAID 1 with two Samsung 840 EVO 1TB working fine under Windows 7 - x64. Did a (by lenovo update tool recommended) BIOS Update with the bios update manager to 2.05. Update ran fine. After Rebooting (and loading defaults, disabling Intel Rapid Start, Changing BIOS boot option to legacy first ... I recognized SATA Option (AHCI or RAID) in BIOS is gone. At boot Intel Matrix Storage Configuration doesnot appear anymore (where you can build RAID etc).
Â
Boot then brings up message "missing operating system".
Â
Downgrade to BIOS 1.05 impossible, due to ISO File on www.lenovo.com support is not system compatible, message "Lenovo Group Limited - Invalid system disk; Replace te disk, and then press any key")
(The link to the ISO File version 1.05 at the bottom of this page links a non bootable ISO image [URL]....)
Also the downgrade to BIOS version 1.08 found here [URL] .... does not work, CD also messages "Lenovo Group Limited - Invalid system disk - Replace ...").
Â
Rewriting BIOS version 2.05 (GNET57WW) does not work (says "BIOS update not necessary").
Â
Embedded Controller Version GMHT25WW (1.10) ME Firmware Version 9.0.22.1467. How to get back my RAID controller?
Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Z50-75 / How To Activate Turbo Core
Dec 24, 2014Model: Lenovo z50-75
AMD Vision A8-7100 Processor ,max 3,0 GHz, Â Quad-Core
AMD Radeon R5 M230 Grafik, 2048 MB
8GB DDR3 Memory
Â
Took this from an Notebook review on Notebookcheck(dot)net:
Â
"It is comprised of the integrated Radeon R5 Kaveri graphics core and the dedicated Radeon R5 M230 GPU. The GPUs operate in a so-called Crossfire array, i.e. both cores can perform the calculation of displayed images. This process is, for example, used in computer games. Only the integrated GPU is used for routine tasks and in battery mode"
Â
i've managed to finally install Windows on the Laptop.
Â
But unfortunately he's pretty slow, even with the 4GB added memory.
Â
When i bought it, it was said it had 4x 1,8Ghz CPU speed which could go on up to 3Ghz.
Also this dual Graphics solution is somewhy worse than the desktop Computers is, even though the Desktop computer has way worse components. It's said that the normal usage of the computer only requires the graphic processors of the GPU. however there is a graphic card with dedicated memory which should be activated whenever requirement on higher performance applications / games is needed.
Lenovo B / G Series :: New G580 Has Seven Partitions
Aug 21, 2012Having a  hard time figuring the partitions.  first is a windows  recovery drive.  Second the windows boot partition.  Third i'm guessing a lenovo recovery drive.  Other than C: Windows, The other i'm not sure.
Other info: Made usb factory restore and made one restore point. Â When i made the usb factory restore when it finished it asked if i wanted to erase the recovery and i selected yes. Â Was thinking maybe G: was created when i made the restore.

Dec 3, 2009My B570 seems to have developed an odd issue.
Â
Basically it won't shut down or reboot nicely anymore.
Â
I noticed it today when I decided to do a clean install of Windows 8.1. It freezes on the last part of the install (where it reboots) - I manually cut the power by holding the power button. Turn it back on and it and it loads up Windows as usual.
Â
But then when I try to shut it down or reboot from within Windows, the laptop just seems to stall at some point and never finish - Literally forcing me to manually power it down whenever I'm done with it.

Lenovo B / G Series :: G580 With Windows 8 - Keyboard Not Working
May 22, 2013After entering the initial request for password (successfully), the keyboard is non-functional. With the exception of the windows scroll key, no other keys work. Logic suggests that this is a driver problem. The question is which driver?
Â
BTW, looking at the driver manager, it says that the keyboard driver is a standard PS2 keyboard from Microsoft, dated 6/21/2006, version 6.2.9200.16548. Can this be?Â
Lenovo B / G Series :: G580 OneKey Rescue Won't Start
Dec 29, 2013My friend has a Lenova G580. She said Windows wouldn't boot and gave it to me to fix.
Â
I confirmed that windows does not boot in normal mode, safe mode, or recovery mode using any of the boot options for Windows. It will either sit at a black screen (it looks like it's almost at the GUI) or reboot if in safe mode before it gets to that point.
Â
So after discussion we decided to whipe the machine using the Lenovo OneKey Rescue system. I hit the Lenovo OneKey button next to the power button.
Â
It spends a couple minutes booting and I get the green grass background that looks like this one for version 7 but it will just sit there for a day without ever loading the the app. No mouse, no windows. Just the brackground image.
Â
What the problem might be for this system? Restoring to factory settings was the last resort and I am alarmed to see this is not working on this ~2 year old system.
Lenovo B / G Series :: G580 Battery Status Destroyed
Dec 17, 2012I am facing this problem for last few days with my ~3 months old Lenovo G580 laptop.
One morning, i switched on my laptop and found the battery indicator showing "88% available (plugged in, not charging)". and when i removed the power adapter, the laptop would just power off.
in short, the battery is getting detected but is not charging or working anymore.
At first i thought it was some software/driver problem but  then, i checked the Lenovo "Energy Management" tool and found that it was showing the battery status "Destroyed" (Screenshot below.)
