Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: IdeaPad Z580 - Windows 8 And SSD Disk

May 13, 2013

About a year ago I bought a Lenovo IdeaPad Z580 with Windows 8 preinstalled. My question is this:
 
I  want to upgrade my hardware by replacing my current hard disk with an Solid State Disk. The problem is that in windows 8 there is not any program except the OneKey Recovery which obviously it isn't a Microsoft's official recovery application (such as the one in Windows 7). If I create a disk with OneKey then is there any way to use it to install windows 8 on the new SSD disk? How the pc is gonna recognize a backup disk created by an application which is not installed on it?

Jul 24, 2014

Suddenly my keyboard seems switched to a different layout.
 
When I press ; I get now +

When I press @ I get now "
When I press " I get now `
When I press  ) I get now '
etc.
 
So it looks like my Ideapad Z580 has suddenly adopted the settings of another keyboard layout. How I can restore the correct settings?

Lenovo U/S Series :: IdeaPad U330p - Bluetooth Symbol Appears Every 20 Seconds

Jan 9, 2015

The day before yesterday I bought a new Lenovo IdeaPad U330p without operating system. I already installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, Microsoft Office 2013 and some drivers.

Yesterday everything worked properly, but since today there's always a bluetooth symbol appearing (approximately) every 20 sec) on the right side of the screen. It disappears immediately.

It is not possible to click on the symbol, it still disappears.
 
I already tried to uninstall the Bluetooth-driver, but it didn't work. After restart they are reinstalled automatically.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Z580 With Windows 7 - Can't Enter BIOS

Jul 4, 2012

My machine is Lenovo Z580 with Windows 7. Some time ago I accidentally installed Linux Mint on my whole HDD, so all the partitions and files (including recovery partition) were erased. I then installed back Windows 7 and partitioned the HDD.

However, since the incident, I'm unable to enter BIOS. I'd like to change boot sequence, because the laptop wants to boot from network, displays an error, and then boots from HDD and Windows 7 starts. I can access boot manager with F12 during boot, and the entries are (those aren't the exact names of course, except the first one):
 
1. ubuntu <- yes, that's how it's called. I guess it's a remnant of Linux Mint installation
2. booting from network
3. booting from HDD
4. booting from DVD
5. booting from USB
 
I tried the following things:
1. pressing F2 at boot. it used to work before the incident, now the laptop ignores it and proceeds to attempting boot from network, displays an error, and then boots from HDD.
2. using Novo button instead of power button, then choosing "BIOS setup" option - the laptop still proceeds to boot OR displays black screen and need to be shut down
3. removing boot entries using Ubuntu via USB stick [URL] ..... - I can't remove any entry, because after using
 
>efibootmgr -v
 
no list appears, and when I enter
 
>efibootmgr -B -b 001
 
or any other number, I get an error that the entry wasn't found.
 
I can't flash BIOS because Lenovo didn't provide the necessary file for this model. I also can't sent the laptop to repair because my warranty period ended two months ago.
 
So, I flashed the file attached here: [URL] .... and everything works now! the "ubuntu" entry has been automatically deleted and I was able to access BIOS and change the boot order.
 
Before installing ... write down MAC address of your LAN card, because it'll get deleted after BIOS update!

1. press windows key+R, type cmd and press Enter.....
2. in the opened command window, type ipconfig /all and press Enter, find the entry regarding your Ethernet connection and write down the physical address....
3. Flash BIOS update
4. After reboot follow this guide: [URL] .....

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Z580 Touchpad Not Registering Two Finger Click On Windows 8.1

Oct 30, 2012

I recently upgraded my Z580 to Windows 8.1 x64 from Windows 8x64
 
Some Windows 8.1 drivers work, for some things I had to use Windows 8 drivers
 
But the touchpad isn't registering a two finger click as a right click on either of the drivers. It used to work fine on Windows 8 but  I have to use the button to right click which is uncomfortable. Two finger scrolling works fine, pinch zoom gesture works fine, even Windows 8 screen edge gestures work perfectly...

HP/Compaq :: Every Time I Shut Down My Pc It Restarts Itself Like 5 Seconds After It Turns Off

Jul 9, 2009

For some reason every time I shut down my pc it restarts itself like 5 seconds after it turns off. I looked it up and someone said try unplugging the Ethernet cable. So I did and when I unplug when I shut it down it doesn't restart itself but only when I leave the Ethernet cable in it. Why is that? Also down on my currently connected icon by the clock why does it show that i'm connected to two networks? I had xp pro before and it only showed me connected to one network but on this new computer it shows me connected to two networks. Network 2 and Network 3, is that normal?

I have bought a Lenovo Z50 70 laptop with free DOS. I have sucessfully installed Windows 8.1 in it. I want to install Fedora 20 alongside with windows 8.1. But I have failed to do this after trying so many times.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: IdeaPad Z50-75 - Can't Install Windows 8 - Not Booting From DVD

Dec 24, 2014

I've bought a Lenovo IdeaPad Z50-75 ( with Free DOS ):
 
Bios Version: A4CN24WW (V 1.03)
 
I am trying to install Windows 8 but it just doesnt work. not matter if i allow secure boot or disable it. no matter if i choose from the "OS Optimized Defaults : [Win8 64bit]"
 
I changed the boot priority so that the DVD-Reader is on the highest place (1). Got a working Win8 DVD, also got win7 professional, but i'd rather install Windows 8.
 
Even though Win7 is okay too if it'll work then.
 
I don't know what to do other than switching around between all those options. and it doesn't work at all.
 
Whenever i start the laptop and choose to start with the DVD-Reader it lights up and nothing happens.

Lenovo C/E/K/M/N/V Series :: IdeaPad V570 Can't Boot Windows 8 Install DVD

Nov 22, 2014

I have an IdeaPad V570 that experienced a total hard drive failure (be careful how hard to close the laptop in frustration) I had Best Buy try to recover data and opted not to pay for the recovery after the only crucial data did not seem to have been recovered. Best Buy told me the rest of the system seems to be intact so they could install a new Hard Drive if I wanted it back. They made me offers to completely restore the system at a price but I decided to save money thinking I should be able to restore the system myself. So they installed the hard drive and that was it. 

I decided to go with Windows 8 after learning that support was beginning to wain for Windows 7. I purchased the OS from Best Buy and I am attempting to install it. So far that is not going well. The BIOS sees the CDDVDW drive and the HDD, both are listed in the BOOT menu with the right names. However the computer is not booting from the WIndows disk. I get a message ending with :

PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM

At which point it take me to the Boot Menu. I can see the order I have set for Booting is:

1. ATAPI CD: TZSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633F
2. ATA HDD: WDC WD10JPVX-22JC3T0
3. PCI LAN: Realtek PXE B03 D00

It seems to me that the system is trying to boot in that order but the CDDVD drive is not responding, the HDD has nothing on it so it goes for the PCI LAN and there is nothing for it to do so it returns the error an sends me back to the Boot Menu.

Lenovo U/S Series :: Windows 8 Installed On Wrong Partition Of IdeaPad U430?

Aug 13, 2014

I just opened my Ideapad u430, and immediately noticed that the windows OS was installed on the 500gb sata drive instead of the SSD. I'm pretty sure the whole point of the SSD portion was to install the OS on it to speed performance. Any tips on how to transfer the OS onto the other side of the partition without having the original discs?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Windows 8.1 On IdeaPad Y510P ExpressCache - Constant Freezing

Feb 20, 2014

I recently bought the Y510p laptop and upgraded windows to 8.1
 
Since the upgrade i'm getting contant freezing, which could last 10seconds or 10minutes.
 
Any time i restart the computer it will hang, and the only way to kill is it to press on Power button.
 
Checked the eventviewer and i found the following warning appearing every minute:
 
Log Name: System
Source: iaStorA
Date: 20/02/2014 17:36:40
Event ID: 129
Task Category: None
Level: Warning

[Code] ....
 
After long research i came to conclusion that the ExpressCache is causing this.
 
The moment I uninstalled it, issues disappeared. System will restart without any issues, it won't freeze either.
 
Checked the following article: [URL] .... 
 
Tried to re-install ExpressCache but the issue started to presist straight away, constant freezing and the above message in event viewer.

Lenovo U/S Series :: Windows 8.1 On IdeaPad U330 - Secure Boot Not Being Configured

Oct 19, 2013

Yesterday, I updated to win 8.1.  The process appeared to go smoothly, but I now have a number of issues:
 
1  If I close the lid and reopen, the sytem does not wake up.   It does not wake up if I press the power button.  All I can do is a hard shutdown and reboot.  This occasionally gives an error message on restart, but has not produced any solutions.
 
2 There is a message about secure boot not being configured
 
3 The support app has a cross on it and won't work
 
No doubt there are other problems, but number 1 is the killer....

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: IdeaPad Z510 - How To Install Windows 8 In UEFI Mode

Jan 24, 2014

I have been struggling with installing w8 on my Ideapad z510 laptop in UEFI mode, but neither I could succeed it nor I could I find something that might work. I will clearly explain the case.

Point 1:
As I understood, to succeed w8 install in UEFI format, one needs to choose "UEFI First" mode from Boot Menu in BIOS. Then, the source of the boot needs to be specified to identify the rigid path to the documents to load so that new OS could be installed correctly.

Problem1:
It is possible to chose UEFI First from boot mode, but it's not possible to choose the USB path for UEFI booting in this case, which doesn't allow you to succeed a UEFI boot to your computer. You can't reach the DVD or USB, where the installation files are, and start installation process.

Point2:
Considering the first case, you need to choose Legacy Support mode to boot your computer and reach USB disk or DVD to install new OS on the computer. 
 
Problem2:
To succeed UEFI mode booting to the computer, you need to see 4 different partitions on your disk at point of disk selection, where you choose the disk you'll install your OS. However, when you select the Legacy Support mode from BIOS, the disk partition is limited to 2 in my case, which are:

Primary diskSystem reserved (350 MB)Hence, when I continue with the installation, the OS is installed on Legacy mode. After installation, when I go to BIOS to choose UEFI mode for boot mode, the laptop checks some connections from network and says

EFI network 0 for IPv4 failedEFI network 0 for IPv6 failed respectively.

PS: Please don't tell that "you can't install, because your computer doesn't support", because I received the computer from technical service and a version of W8 was installed on it in UEFI mode. However I deleted it to install W8 pro.

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 P/Y/Z Series :: How To Set Z580 Battery Settings To Fully Charge

Nov 4, 2012

I bought a new Lenovo Z580 this past June. Shortly after I began using it, a system message popped up explaining to me that since I often have my laptop plugged in, it would conserve battery life if I let the system change my settings so that the battery didn't fully charge -- this would save battery life over the longterm and I would be free to change the setting whenever I wanted to. Well, this has been the biggest mistake ever. I now essentially have a desktop because I cannot find any setting that allows me to change the battery to fully charge (it only charges to 40 or 50%). There isn't any mention of this feature in the user guide materials that I can find and none of the Power Options allow me to change the battery charge capacity.
