Lenovo U/S Series :: IdeaPad S415 Touch WiFi Connection Drops Often

Feb 10, 2014

I just purchased the Ideapad S415 Touch.  The wifi connection drops OFTEN.  It still shows that it is connected, but there is no internet pages load, email stops working, etc.  If I hit "disconnect" on the connection, then hit "connect" again, it works great . . . . for a few more minutes or an hour or whatever.  I went into "properties" and changed the settings on roaming and power management per an article I found on this site.  I think this may have worked a bit, but it's still happening.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y580 Can't Connect To WiFi - No Internet

Jan 1, 2015

[URL] .... Here's what it looks like.

Yesterday everything was working fine, I turned off the laptop, went out, turned it on in the morning and bam, no internet. I reinstalled drivers, then reinstalled the system and nothing changed. It certainly isn't router's fault, since other devices can connect to the Wi-Fi

I solved it, somehow wireless network card got turned off and I just figured out Fn+F5 prompts a window where I could turn it back on.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Z580 WiFi Not Working - Could Not Connect To Network

Oct 3, 2013

My new Lenovo Z580 runs windows 8 64bit, core i3 3rd gen, 4gb RAM.

The problem is, since day 1,every few minutes the internet stops working. It shows as connected, the router is working, other connected devices run as intended and everything's fine. But internet doesn't work on my laptop. It says "Could not connect to the network". I have tried doing the "keep wifi on during sleep" etc. but nothing works. It just stops working after a while even though I am using the laptop, it just suddenly stops. It even shows as connected, and packets are being received but internet or any application over the internet will not work untill I disconnect and reconnect.

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: WiFi Won't Connect After Wake-Up From Sleep On X230

Sep 10, 2012

Brand new X230 here, with the Lenovo wifi.  It seems like when I first got it that it would reconnect to wifi after waking, but now, after having done all my software installation, system updates, bios update, etc. - at some point it stopped doing this.  After waking I've tried turning wifi on and off, disabling and re-enabling the adapter, releasing and renewing the ip (it won't renew).  Basically, after coming out of sleep it seems like the adapter just won't "wake up" fully and get a new ip address.  All Windows and systems updates have been performed.

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: X1 Carbon - Connect Automatically Settings For WiFi Do Not Appear

May 14, 2010

(There is another thread on this, but it relates to Windows 8.  I am running Win 7 Pro 64 bit.)
 
I have a Thinkpad X1 Carbon type 3443-CTO.  The Wi-Fi adapter -- never the stablest thing on earth -- is getting flakier and flakier.  I am constantly having to reset or disable/re-enable it.  The "connect automatically" settings for some of my existing Wi-Fi routers do not appear, so that I have to connect manually every time.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: WiFi Continuously Drops Out On New T540p

Nov 21, 2014

I have a two month old Lenovo T540p with win 8.1 and a Realtek 2x2 1 1b/g/n wireless Lan  M.2  adaptor that loses the connection to all wifi every 10 minute. The wifi worked fine in the beginning, but after a month and some updates the problem started.
 
Lan cable works without any problem.
 
I can always fix the wifi with turning off all wifi ( t. ex. fn+f8)  wait 5 seconds and turn it on again. But after aprox. 10 min. it drops out again.
 
Every part of the laptop is up to date, even bluetooth driver, bios etc..

I tried another router same result. I tried changing channel on the router.
I tried connecting to a hotspot on my smartphone, same result.
The distance to the router makes no difference.
The Laptop is scanned for virus with Avast free.
I use chrome but tried IE and mozilla with the same result.
I tried to ping the router and it receives no data when the connection is lost.
I tried turning the firewall off, same result.
There no power saving on wifi.
Everything is fine in device management
 
Maybe its a win8 issue ? Do I really have to format the hd  turn the computer back to beginning and start all over ? This shouldn't happen to a brand new computer.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Does Y500 Support SLI

May 22, 2013

I have this Lenovo Y500 with Nvidia GT 750M, and there's a sticker on it that says "Ultrabay".

1- Can I get another GFX and insert it instead of the DVD Rom ? FOR SURE ? 

2- Should this additional GFX be another 750M , or can it be a more recent model ? 

3- Is it guaranteed that SLI will work under Windows 8.1 ? 

4- Will there be a significant improvement in performance after adding another GFX ? Are there any tests and validated benchmarks ? 

5- Where can I get such a good, compatible additional GFX that will surely work with my Y500 laptop ?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Deleted Recovery Partition Of Y500

Jan 24, 2014

I bought a Y500 a few months ago and I bought a Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD along with it. Mine didn't come with the 16GB mSATA SSD for caching so I decided to replace the original 1TB HDD with a 256GB SSD. I also had a copy of Windows 8 Professional that I bought for my desktop. Since I wasn't using my desktop anymore I decided to move 8 Pro to the Y500. And it wouldn't let me format and reinstall, I'd get an error saying "The product key does not match any of the Windows images available for installation. Enter a different product key."

I cloned my HDD on to an SSD with Acronis True Image Home. Then I stuck the SSD in my laptop and then selected repair my computer after booting into the 8 Pro disc. And from there I selected the option to reset my PC. Then once it reset it became extremely fast and stuff. And from the add features to Windows 8 option I entered the Productkey I got with 8 Pro and it allowed me to upgrade. Then once the 8.1 update came out I updated immediately.

Now for the last few days my laptop has been getting laggy. So I decided to reset it again. And now when I try to it says that the required recovery partition is missing, I don't recall deleting any of the partitions I cloned the drive perfectly and had also been able to reset it once before. Anyway, now my 1TB HDD is inside my PS3 and I'm stuck with a laggy Y500 that takes 20 seconds to boot up on an SSD and I'm trying to figure out a way out of this mess. Is it possible to get recovery discs?. My Y500 is the model that has a single NVIDIA 2GB GT750 and an intel core i7 3632QM.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y500 Touchpad Two-finger-tap Not Working

Apr 21, 2013

I bought my Y500 a few days ago and happy with it in general. However, one day the two-finger-tap (for right click) on the touchpad stopped working. Below is a description.
 
Everything else as far as I can tell, including two-finger scroll and one-finger tap and so forth, are working fine, but the two-finger tap stopped working even though it worked fine for a few days. I have a suspicious as to what caused it but I'm not entirely sure. In any case I think it's most likely a bug, and probably software.

One day I went into "control panel" -> "mouse" -> "device settings" -> "settings..." -> "Scrolling" -> "two-finger scrolling" -> "enable coasting". I played with coasting for a while, and soon disabled it again because I didn't really like it. However, it was then that I noticed that my two-finger tap stopped working. I have doubled-checked that "control panel" -> "mouse" -> "device settings" -> "settings..." -> "clicking" -> "two-finger click" is set to "secondary click (context menu, special drag)", but the two-finger click still doesn't work, even after a restarted. I downloaded the latest driver (version 16.2.18.0) and it still didn't work. I uninstalled the driver and installed it again and it still doesn't work. Now I like using the touchpad, but really hate living without two-finger tap for right-clicking.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y500 Display Lines And Distortion

Jun 10, 2014

My Y500 (one of the older models) has some weird display issues for some time now. When I try to adjust the screen angle, some horizontal green lines appear randomly on my screen. Some other parts also have vertical magenta lines. Then I have to try several angles until I find a position where the display doesn't show any problems. This happens almost every time when I open the display and turn it on. Sometimes it is less of a problem and sometimes more. If I don't move the laptop or the screen the problem does not show up. My drivers should all be up to date and I have Windows 8.1.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y500 Takes Minimum Of 15 Minutes To Restart

Jun 2, 2013

When I "restart" my Y500 using windows 8.0, it takes a minimum of 15 minutes.  Sometimes, if I have time to wait, it takes more than one hour.   90% of the time, I restart it using the on/off button.  No problems at all using the button, but the software takes a VERY long time or won't restart at all--just the green screen with the word "restart."

Lenovo Y500 P/Y/Z Series :: IdeaPad Discharging Battery During Some Games

Jun 8, 2014

Recently I've been having problems with the battery discharging while plugged in while playing some games (Civilization V and Sniper Elite V2 are the ones I've noticed the most). In the case of Civilization V, it also causes the game to lag to the point of being unplayable. The battery notification when scrolled over says "plugged in, not charging" and does so indefinitely until the computer shuts off from lack of power. It also decreases the battery life to just about an hour and fifteen minutes when discharging like this.
 
because it doesn't seem to happen with every single game I own. Sims 3, Saint's Row the Third, Skyrim, etc. do not suffer from this problem. I've already tried uninstalling the games with this problem and reinstalling them, but that doesn't seem to work.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Can't Restore Y500 - Recovery Partition Missing

Mar 5, 2014

I had two of the same Windows 8.1 OS on my Y500 (Cloned from original to SSD). Then Last night I tried to 'refresh without affecting your files' option for my OS on the HDD so I have a fresh OS to go back to incase anything happend. then on the Lenovo screen it said that the E: drive was being refreshed as well so I freaked and turned off the computer. NOw I cant access either of the OS's. What should I do? I did do a back up right before and the back up files are still there in a partition I made in the HDD. I used a USB boot of Puppy LInux to see the files on my HDD but it would not let me transfer it to an External Hard Drive. I will Try to install a better linux and try to transfer the OKR files to another Drive.
 
-how would I go about restoring the back up files if I were to get them on another drive?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: IdeaPad Y500 - No Battery Display For Remaining Power

Mar 3, 2014

Shortly after I received my laptop, I installed a third-party battery monitor, BatteryCare, to monitor the battery in the laptop because I'd used it on previous software and liked having a second source of information. I've been running the laptop like a desktop for the last few months though and havent had to pay any attention to batter life, since the thing is always plugged in so I decided to delete BatteryCare.
 
The uninstall went fine, but when I restarted the computer I noticed that the icon displaying remaining battery life did not reappear. I went digging to see if the uninstallation might have uninstalled a driver but I couldn't find anything indicating a problem like this. I still have the Energy Monitor - just nothing showing up much juice is left in the battery.
 
Any pointers on what drivers/devices I might have to reinstall to get power monitor icon back. I checked the Driver Matrix, here, but I couldn't find anything about solution. Should I just reinstall the Energy Management utility?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: IdeaPad Y500 Touchpad Not Turn Back On - Restart Requires

Dec 12, 2012

Okay so, I got my Lenovo Ideapad Y500 a couple days ago. Liked it and all BUT when I had my mouse connected into the laptop and then turned off the touchpad, it would not turn back on. The only way I could get my touchpad to work again is by restarting the computer, which is pretty frustrating. 

I searched this: [URL] ....  for ANY drivers/software for the Y500 mousepad and there are none.
 
FN + F6 toggles the touchpad on and off and I have tried to turn it on and off, with and without the external mouse connected.

Now, my laptop does not access wifi nor detect any wireless connection whether our home wifi, or others.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y500 / Default Boot Device Missing Or Boot Failed

Jul 31, 2013

I have a y500 Lenovo gaming laptop with Windows 8, and for the past couple of days, each time my laptop is put in hibernation or powered down, whenever I turn it back on it gives me this message:

"Default Boot Device Missing or boot failed Insert recovery media and hit any key Then select boot manager to choose a new boot device to boot or recovery media."

Then it brings me to a page with 3 boot options, and only the Windows Boot Manager works. I'm doing scans and hardware scans but so far nothing is being found. This laptop is less than 2 months old so I really don't think it's a hardware problem, and I haven't downloaded anything recently that may have messed this up. I would contact Lenovo but I'm unsure if this is an issue with the laptop, or Windows 8.
